love the keyboard shortcuts to navigate through recent tabs

내가 찾아본 중에 가장 완벽한 탭 관리 확장 프로그램입니다. 상세 옵션으로 들어가면 꽤 많은 기능들이 있는데 옵션을 조금만 조정하면 intellij의 recent files처럼 쓸 수 있습니다. 오래된 탭은 메모리에서 꺼버리는 edge하고도 궁합이 잘 맞네요. 이걸 쓰면 탭바를 아예 없애버려도 됩니다. 한가지 아쉬운점이 있다면 저처럼 윈도우를 여러개 켰을때 분리가 안된다는점이 있긴 합니다.

Been using this for years. Highly recommended for power users with lots of open tabs and keyboard first approach. One of only two extensions I could not live without. Thanks for creating it!
