Adds a right-click menu that opens a link in a specified window
What is Open in specific window?
'Open in Specific Window' is a Chrome extension that enhances your browsing experience by enabling customizable link opening. Instead of the default mechanism which opens a clicked link in the same window, this extension adds a right-click menu that allows you to choose the window to open the link in. This feature comes in handy particularly when having multiple Chrome windows open. The menu automatically shows the titles of available windows, and even lets you name your open windows for easy identification.

Works.
Please repair the alt+click option! It would be the best extension with it!
Alt-click doesn't work. This extension is useless, there's no way I'm going to constantly right-click.
