MoTa

A very simple extension to move tabs around with your keyboard

What is MoTa?

MoTa is a simple Chrome extension designed to supplement Vimium by providing vi-like shortcuts to move and pin tabs with your keyboard. It allows you to move tabs to the beginning or end of the window, left or right, out to new windows, and in to next windows. You can also pin and unpin tabs. MoTa does not currently support shortcut customization, but future updates may include this feature based on user requests.

MOTA

INTRODUCTION MoTa allows you to move and pin your tabs with the keyboard. It is designed to supplement the excellent Vimium (other keyboard shortcut extensions are available), which unfortunately has no support for managing tabs this way. The shortcuts are vi-like.

THE FUTURE Currently you cannot change the shortcuts for this extension, but if I get many requests for this (or for more friendly shortcuts) at [email protected] (two Ls), I will add this feature. I may also add command repetition (e.g. 3<Alt-l> moves current tab three to the right). Oh, and if Vimium adds this functionality, I will not use this extension myself.

SHORCUTS <Alt-0>: Move current tab to beginning of window <Alt-$>: Move current tab to end of window <Alt-h>: Move current tab left <Alt-l>: Move current tab right <Alt-j>: Move current tab out to new window <Alt-k>: Move current tab in to next window <Alt-p>: Pin/Unpin current tab
