Open new WWW-page with <prefix>.<window_id>.<tab_id>

Open fmartin2912 opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Hi, brotab-developers, nice job, your "bt".

Would it be possible to open a new WWW-page in the same tab as the last one opened? That would be a nice feature in case of a lot of openings of WWW-pages (my workaround in a python script opening in an new tab and closing eventually opened other tabs sometimes produces errors with send/receive times).

Greetings Martin

@fmartin2912 are you talking about "new" (new tab with google query search) or "open" (open the give URL) command?

I think what they want is to open a URL in a particular tab.

Currently, open takes <prefix>.<window_id>, but they seem to be requesting that it should take <prefix>.<window_id>.<tab_id>

This will allow you to open a URL in the current tab like so: bt open $(bt active) https://google.com
