Close Left/Right Tabs and Open Closed Tabs

[kiwichick]

Hi there,

The "Close All Other Tabs" option is great! I've added it to a custom toolbar button. Would it be possible to add options to close only right or left tabs?

I also love the "Restore Last Closed Tab" option and have added that to a toolbar button as well. Would it be possible to restore more than just the last one?

Cheers.

Both wishes can be easily achieved via scripting.

Hints?
1.) Get current tab ID. while loop. Close all tabs with a lower id (left) / higher id (right).
2.) Save path of the tab to close to a file (or permanent variable?). Reload them from there when necessary.

Thanks for the hints, highend, I'll see what I can come up with.

1.)

Code: Select all

/* 20.09.2012, Close all tabs left / right from the current tab
   ::load "<xyscripts>\CloseTabs.xys";
   Author: Highend
   Version: v0.1
*/
"CloseLeftTabs"
  $curTabID = tab("get");
  $maxTabs = $curTabID - 1;
  $i = 1;
  while($i <= $maxTabs) {
    tab("close", 0, 1);
    $i++;
  }

"CloseRightTabs"
  $numTabs = tab("get", "c");
  $curTabID = tab("get");
  $maxTabs = $numTabs - $curTabID;
  $i = 1;
  while($i <= $maxTabs) {
    tab("close", 0, $curTabID + 1);
    $i++;
  }

Thanks Highend! I have just realized, that I as well can use it. I have some permanent tabs at the beginning, then the amount of temporary tabs always grow at the end. CloseRight is ideal to close temporary tabs all at once.

And that's great LittleBiG, I'm glad someone else will find a use for this.
