New Tab Search Addon

[irvinm]

Highlights

• I've published a new Tab Search Addon that also has special integration with TST, but isn't required.
  • https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-search/
  • https://github.com/irvinm/TabSearch

Features

• Real-time or manual search modes
• Can search URLs, tab titles, or tab contents
• Can auto-multi-select search results if you want to drag and drop all matching tabs together
• Can search for tabs with audio playing (Speaker Icon)
• Supports TST
  • Auto-expands all trees during the search
  • Flattens the trees (visually) for better review of matching tabs
  • Can auto-expand trees that contain matching tabs after search is complete
  • Restores formatting and tree states after the search is complete

Special Feature

• The addon uses the tab.hide()/tab.show() functionality to allow searches to simply show only the matching tabs real-time
• This approach works well with the new TST view-port changes of only rendering a certain amount of tabs
