One of my complaints about Tabbed browsing has been the inability to use alt-tab to jump between programs. I use this all the time when working on Internet stuff.
Today, I accidentaly found out I can use ctrl-tab to switch between tabs in Firefox. I believe I heard angels sing when it happened.......
Thought I would share.....
I know I'll get flamed for this... but ctrl tab also switches tabs in IE7, which I actually use... but not because it's better than FF, because I'm lazy. And all you had to do is ask, I'd have told you that. ;P
Ctrl-tab has been working in Linux FF since forever... So there!!! ;p
Moosedog, it's one of those things that you never think to ask why.
It never occurred to me to think, hey, I wonder if there is a way to jump between tabs using two keys.... Forrest for the tree's I guess....
Now, I just need to work it into Mouse Gestures and I'll be all set! I won't even have to push two keys, now that's laziness.....
That's a cool idea. I do up for new tab, down for new page, left for back and right for forward. I'll have to add the scroll wheel trick into the mix.
I do miss mouse gestures. They're cool.
See funny thing, I always find new stuff out about my Dad. He'll tell some story that I had never heard and I'll say, Dad; you never told me that! He says, you never asked. Well, how the heck am I suppose to know to ask an odd question like that??? So, yeah... I know. =)
