Why don't you folks who want tabs just use a bbedit worksheet? I rarely use Finder these days and I never open a bbedit slide drawer.
What I do is to always have a bbedit worksheet open on my leftmost monitor. In it are shell scripts that I can select and click any time I want. They are easily arranged in groups and I can call files by whatever name I want. It's easy to arrange a series of shell commands that open all the files I want be they bbedit or something else. I can also "tell" a browser to open a bbedit html file. The bbedit tool is useful but so is osascript which allows for short AppleScripts that works pretty will with bbedit when you want to search for stuff.. Just set up a worksheet and make it a window size you like. Your tabs can be simple names in the order you want. Click on one and bbedit will do what you ask for and could easily just open, or perhaps save and close the "tab" that you want. Actually I do a lot of work with gedit which defaults to opening a new tab when another file is already open. Fortunately I can simply drag the tab over to another monitor to get two real windows as I want. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <-- -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
