Gosh, I just found out that a scroll wheel can scroll through a list of tabs (from firefox, netbeans, etc)... Oh happy day :-) Sofie

I can only close tabs with the scroll wheel :-( ???? Sofie Van Landeghem wrote:

You must be so proud. Scrolling on a taskbar does it too (or on a desktop if you have more than one). You know that CTRL-TAB and ALT-TAB do the same thing, so you save on a hand movement?

Use the mouse more than the keyboard, so hitting ctrl/alt-tab is an extra hand movement :p Lieven : you need to have some tabs "out of vision", then the scrollwheel will make them visible (and hide others) Sofie Thomas Van Parys wrote:

it works! but I like the wheel close more ;-) , just click wheel somewhere in tab and it closes (no need to aim at the x) L. Sofie Van Landeghem wrote:

Hi, yesterday I discovered the following ff plugin: vimperator. It makes your ff act like VIM :) This means no mouse at all! opentab: t closetab: d follow link: f open url: o next tab: ctrl+n prev tab: ctrl+p etc.. for those who's fingers are melted in vim keybindings, this is a must :) and of course, the beloved scrolling of the page with hjkl and ctrl+d (down a page) of ctrl+u (up a page), etc.. http://vimperator.org/trac/wiki/Vimperator gH! (go Home, in a new tab ;)) -Kenny On Mon, 16 Feb 2009, lieven sterck wrote:

For those who want to get the most out of their mouse you can try something like this : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/39 . I used to use this for several things and once you get the hang of it it's quite nice. But since I started using touchpads on laptops rather often I stopped using it. PS. scrolling through tabs doesn't seem to work here though :( Thomas Van Parys schreef:

Indeed. To be honest, I use this one all the time when browsing: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12 Quite confusing if you suddenly have to use someone else's Firefox and you can't draw red lines on the screen. T.
