Quick Commands

Provides a fast way to search and change between open Tabs or open tabs from History and Bookmarks. Inspired by Vivaldi's Quick Commands (https://help.vivaldi.com/article/quick-commands/) Use the shortcut (Alt+Shift+R) to open the menu window.

Quick commands is an add-on inspired by Vivaldi's Quick Commands that provides a similar window to search and open existing and former tabs.

Usage:

Open the quick-commands window with Alt+Shift+R (customizable via Firefox's "Manage Extension Shortcuts") Search and browse with the Up/Down Arrows. Open the selected tab with Enter. Esc closes the window, and your current shortcut for closing a tab (Ctrl+W/Cmd+W) will work just as well

Permissions:

The following permissions are requested upon installation (most are quite self-explanatory):

  • tabs: For searching and switching between current open tabs
  • history: To be able to search and display links from history
  • bookmarks: To be able to search and display links from your bookmarks
  • storage: To save your theme preferences (and sync them between devices if you are logged into your Firefox Account)
  • search: To add "Search with..." functionality

Ideas/Suggestions/Bugs:

Known:

  • Open Settings/Downloads/other internal Firefox pages: on hold (most about: pages can't be opened from extensions)
