.Multiple Tab Handler (34KB) extension formerly: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/4838 now must be by name https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/multiple-tab-handler/ invoked from Tabs context menu for selected tabs Sample Control cards for MTH creating text references to tab here in http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/firefox/multiple_tab_handler.txt CopyURL Plus (18KB) extension invoked from the main context menu and/or the Tools menu can include a selection, since it only applies to the current tab. Sample Control cards for CopyURLplus can be found within http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/firefox/code/prefs.txt Both extensions are documentation in http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/firefox/firefox.htm The added features in Multiple Tab Handler (MTH) should be built-in to Firefox, which needs native ability to select and work with multiple tabs. Multiple tabs are selected via Ctrl+click on a tab with this extension. Specifically because you can select which tabs are to be included there is no need for any option to allow or disallow inclusion of app-tabs. Double Click Closes Tab :: Add-ons for Firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/double-click-closes-tab/ adds a feature that I think should be in Multiple Tab Handler, anyway this extension is much more direct and smaller than other extensions that can close tabs with a double-click and I go for less complicated and smaller every time. Summary of Multiple Tab Handler, you may not pick up easily from addons descriptions, comments, and extension's home page. The Copy URI doesn't provide for a blank line after each title/url, easily fixed with with a customization option under copy make it the default so you don't have to select options. (You could change about:config) Page Title , URL, spacing -- %TITLE%%EOL%%URL%%EOL% For those doing HTML, keep the menu choices and besides above, add HTML links multiple

  • %TITLE_HTMLIFIED% This will negate need for "Copy All Urls" extension for most people. From an individual page "CopyURL Plus" extension (from main context menu) is best and easily customized, is better specifically because it can include text selection in the format. But on the plus side, it does not interfere with "Permanent Tabs Mod", nor does it interfere with my tab style for stylish. It has a very extensive list of options so many it has tabs for options, so you can select or reject individual items. I choose default behavior for dragging tabs not the option of multiple selection by dragging. Without MTH the default Firefox Tab Context Menu reads as New Tab Reload Tab Reload All Tabs (grayed on single tab) Close Other Tabs (grayed on single tab) _Open in a New Window (grayed on single tab) Bookmark This Tab _Bookmark All Tabs... (grayed on single tab) Undo Close Tab (grayed if none to undo) Close Tab When one tab is selected it adds the following to tab context menu (ordered and separators added via "Menu Editor" extension) Close All Tabs Close Right Tabs Close Left Tabs Save All Tabs Copy URIs of All Tabs Copy URI Close Other Similar Tabs {see options} Close Similar Tabs {see options} _Duplicate Tab When multiple tabs are selected, these are added to the tab context menu Reload Selected Tabs - instead of Reload Tab _Bookmark Selected tabs to New Folder Duplicate Selected Tabs _Move to New Window Close Selected Tabs _Close Other Tabs Copy URIs of Selected Tabs _Save Selected Tabs as files This extension Needs Customizing work (see my changes belows): Of course, nothing handles formatting better than "CopyURL Plus" for the active tab when selections are involved. The "Copy All Urls" extension works with all tabs but barely handles customizable format, and only one HTML choice. Missing merge feature of "duplicate tab" extension. The drag part of duplicate tab is now within Firefox itself, but is not the same as the "duplicate tab" extension. This extension does extend the built-in duplicate tab feature to use with multiple selected tabs. Needs a lot of work; -- Messed up personal chrome changes particularly with selected tabs, it reinstituted tab scrolling when not even needed, just because this extension was installed. Use BACK button, or close-tab to return from whence you came, probably to http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/firefox/firefox.htm#multipletabhandler ======================================= MTH Options ======================================= General: change Move tab by dragging within from 400ms (delay) to 700ms.
