Extension summary

***Grab Tabs is Super Simple This is a super simple extension which dumps a list of current tabs to a text box, ready to copy out to wherever.

There's no need for complexity, sometimes you just need a list of the urls you have open, across windows - essential functionality for a lot of us power users.

Session managers are great, (I use the extension called Session Manager) - but they still lack just the brute functionality to get a list of tab urls straight out. This does that.

No frill, simple tab url extraction :D

User reviews

I use Copy URLs Expert in Firefox and it works like a charm. I can have hundreds of tabs open and it will immediately capture them all on the clipboard and I can then paste them into any document with any app that allows hyperlinks (like Notational Velocity). This is great for times when a browser starts to get bogged down or freezes up and needs to be rebooted with fewer tabs open. But, as many folks here have said, Grab Tabs no longer works. I click on the icon in the menu bar and nothing happens. I am using Chrome Version 33.0.1750.146 on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. I would really like to have the capability to do in Chrome what I can do in Firefox using a different extension.

Seems like a great, simple concept but it doesn't work on Chrome 29 on Win7.
