Aurek Brillowski (ID: 000000e7d57a7b66) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/10/2024 Easy, Powerful, Flexible. Now THAT'S the way to earn five stars! Honestly, one of the best extensions I've very had the privilege to make use of, and I have a LOT of extensions! I'm not sure how I ever lived without this one. Saves me SO much time. Sure, I still use Session Buddy (another one of the "Greats" out there) and make good use of Bookmarking, but at times (many in my case) all you want to do is get those URLs, or links, or whatever. Oh, and with the HTML table save, you add a little AppleScript & Mac Automater and the sky seems to be the limit on how you may want your tabs to be saved. Somebody was "thinking" when they put this extension together and would appear the author first created it it as a useful necessity for himself/herself to use. Keep up the great work! ---------- 6 YEARS ON: After using this extension for 6 more years since the review above, EVERYTHING I said still stands true today AND more as they continue to develop and improve Tab Copy. I only wish that ALL my extensions were as good as Tab Copy! (Note that I have no affiliation with Tab Copy in any way. Just want to be sure to give credit where credit is due.)
