I have set all those to eliminate tabs.
Yet the addon manager keeps appearing in tabs.
The context menu still contains tabs that open unlike I was able to
modify 2.0.14 not to anymore.
I did everything to 2.6.1 that I did to 2.0.14 and I still get tabs.
While I can understand that some people find tabs convinient or easy to
use, why do the rest of us have them forced on us?
All I would really like is a setting like there is for new search in
page function.
I hate it, but a single setting eliminates it.
I would of course perfer if it were off by default, but htat is just me
being pointlessly pickty and in no way expect it.
If I had another newer browser that did't support them I would switch,
but they appear to be all the craze.
Has anyone managed to do a compile your own on seamonkey.
My C/C++ skills are up to little stuff in Cygwin/Mingw, not a monster
like this or I wuld alter everything to deny all tabs always.
And maybe remove the new search thing along with RSS and a couple of
nags while I am at it.
But lacking the necessary skills, I am hoping someone out there knows
more than I do.
