Extension summary

The extension consists of four keyboard shortcuts (VIM style):

  • Alt-Shift-L: Move Tab Right
  • Alt-Shift-H: Move Tab Left
  • Alt-Shift-K: Move Tab to Start Position
  • Alt-Shift-J: Move Tab to End Position

A separate extension, tabasco, adds the following shortcuts to Chrome

  • Close Other Tabs
  • Close Tabs to the Right
  • Pin Tab

Chrome extensions currently only allow for a maximum of four shortcuts, which is why they are not included in tabloid.

This has stopped working almost since a month, is anybody aware of the reason?

I love this extension. One thing I'd suggest is changing the default keyboard shortcuts. I change them manually to the < and > keys (which are the , and . key respectively). That makes it super obvious what left and right are. Blammo. Thanks for creating this extension! Keyboard shortcut lovers rejoice!
