Awesome Button Bar Extension

Too many buttons cluttering up Chrome? This button contains eleven in one.

Extensions, history, downloads, bookmarks, view source, options, new window, and print are all here.

Recently added buttons are duplicate tab, second home, and refresh all tabs.

Showing each button on the bar is optional so you don’t have to have them all if you don’t want them all. Also, each button can be configured to open either in the current window or in a new window. Note: print to a new window now works too!
