About Tab Extract

● Too many disorganized tabs open? ● Slow to find the tab you're looking for? ● Want to reduce tab and window clutter quickly? Tab Extract helps you easily re-organize your tabs according to the subject or site, or quickly find a tab, or easily remove multiple tabs. NEW FEATURES: - Extract tabs playing sound! - Turn on/off pinned tab extraction. How it works: Tab Extract will move all tabs from any window with a keyword match (in their URL or page title), into a new window. To use, type "ex" followed by a tab/space into the address bar, then enter keywords. ✓ "ex facebook news" will extract all facebook tabs and any tab with "news" or "facebook" in their title or URL, into a new window. ✓ "ex ." merges all tabs into the same window. This works because all URLs have a "." in them. ✓ "ex youtube -a" (or "--audio", "--audible") will extract only the YouTube tabs that are currently playing sound. ✓ Batch-remove tabs by extracting tabs to a new window using Tab Extract, and then closing the window. ✓ Tab Extract can merge tabs from across different windows into the same window by using a common keyword amongst the tabs. Notes: There is no need to select anything in the auto complete box, just press enter. If your Chrome has saved some "ex <keyword>" as a search term for autocomplete, clear your history. Firefox version: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-extract-port/ Version 1.6.2 release notes: Support for extracting audio-playing tabs - Added -a, --audio, and --audible flags to target active media/sound tabs - Flags can be combined with search keywords (e.g. "ex youtube -a") Settings Options Page - Added a configuration page to toggle whether to extract pinned tabs or not
