A Chrome extension for fuzzy-finding and switching between tabs.
- Clone this repository
- In Chrome, navigate to
chrome://extensions - Tick the "Developer Mode" checkbox
- "Load Unpacked Extension", select the folder into which you cloned.
By default Switcheroo binds to Ctrl+Shift+K which is terrible. In the likely case you want to change it to something sane, like Ctrl+P: Scroll to the bottom of chrome://extensions, hit "Keyboard Shortcuts", change the "Do the ol' switcheroo" shortcut to whatever you like.
It's not bound there by default because extensions cannot bind to already bound or possibly bound keys.
:(
- Navigate to chrome://extensions
- Hit the trash icon next to Switcheroo
- Delete local files
Navigate to any page, hit the shortcut (default Ctrl+Shift+K, you should really change it), and start typing! The tab url and tab title are searched.
Hit Enter to navigate, Up/Down/Home/End to select from the list. Esc, the shortcut, or click anywhere outside, to quit.
When in Incognito mode and enabled, Switcheroo will only search Incognito tabs and vice-versa.
Let's say you have 20 open tabs. Navigate to tab 14 please. Or to that YouTube video.
Got too many tabs that you can only make out the favicons, and blindly end up trying to jump between them?
Want to go full-screen?
Several reasons:
- You must have a Google account
- You can't publish anonymously
- They charge $20
- They honour sanctions on countries (so an Iranian or North Korean cannot publish there)
- I cbf right now.
- Sort tabs by activity (MRU)
- Bookmarks, history, ...
- Add PgUp/PgDown navigation
- Highlight parts of the title/url which matched
- Make searching Incognito tabs an option?
- When there's a selected item and you filter on, the list scrolling follows the selected item, even if it's really far down the list. Make it fall-back to the first item?
- Get/make/steal an icon
- yo mama joke
