Summary
Adds a button to automatically tile all your browser windows to occupy all your screen with no overlap.
This extension helps you manage several windows, it does not expand tabs to windows or collapse windows into tabs.
Expect some glitches in Linux especially if you have panels on your screen (the window sizes may not be exactly right). See website for bugs, suggestions, patches.
Change log:
- 0.52: Remove unnecessary "tabs" permission as of the newest version of the APIs.
- 0.51: Fix a measuring bug where tiled windows were a little too large.
- 0.5: Support for multiple monitors.
- 0.30: Adapted to version 2 of the Chrome extension manifest. Fixed a bug where clicking on the tiling button twice was sometimes necessary.

Doesn't work. Hasn't been updated since 2021. Please update. Many users liked it. I wish that it would work for me. I'm running Windows 10. When it works again, make it shareware or trialware to earn something back for your time and talent.
Works for me. I wished I had found this extension sooner. (Windows 7)
I still can't do 3 vertical, and there is a gap, but it is efficient. Separate the windows first.
