I don't use it either, but I'd suggest taking a quick look back at forums and look at thread that caused it initially to see who it may affect, and what the discussion was back then before yanking it.

Ok, I've read http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?t=1100 -- I feel encouraged to yank it! :)

No problem with me, as I don't have a limit anyway.

But I know people who actually use it, kind of. They don't like/use the whole Tabs thing, in fact they don't have the Tabs visible, as they whish to only use ONE tab, all the time, no matter what.

Maybe something could be done for them, an option that would always use one single tab. Because now if they'd somehow get to a new tab "by mistake", they don't notice it, but could end up thinking they have "lost" some settings (Home...)

Okay, convinced. I was anyway easier to fix the little bug than to remove the feature and rewrite the help file. :)
