This new add-on is built using Web-Extensions API that is supported by the most of the\nmodern browsers, but it might be irrelevant for other browsers or not even work.\n\n [original]: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-control/\n\nKnown issues\n------------\n\n * The `browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent` and `browser.tabs.selectOwnerOnClose` settings have\n   no effect when the add-on is enabled. If `browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent` is set to\n   `false` (non-default value), new related tabs may briefly appear at the end before being moved\n   to the correct location. Also the tab, that would have normally been activated when the current\n   tab is closed, may be activated briefly before the add-on activates the correct tab. I believe\n   these effects are results of the Web-Extensions API limitations.\n * The add-on may behave unexpectedly when used with any other add-on that moves tabs around on tab\n   open and close events.\n * Firefox makes tabs that are being manipulated manually active automatically. The tabs might be\n   also opened, closed, moved (including between windows) programmatically by other add-ons and user\n   scripts. Such interactions are considered in the implementation, but were not tested extensively.\n\nAre there any alternatives?\n---------------------------\n\nYes, there are:\n\n * [Tab Open/Close Control][tab-open-close-control] by F. Kolbe, that includes a lot of options,\n   but sadly activating tab to the left on close was not working properly and the author hasn't\n   released any updates for several months, which has prompted me to write this add-on.\n * [Open Tabs Next to Current][open-tabs-next-to-current] by Sebastian Blask, that does exactly\n   what it says in its name. Shame I haven't discovered his add-on before I went to lengths to\n   implement my own.\n * [Focus On Left Tab After Closing][focus-on-left-tab-after-closing] by e10s, that I have not\n   tested yet, but it could work in conjunction with the previous add-on.\n\n [tab-open-close-control]: https://addons.mozilla.org/cs/firefox/addon/tab-open-close-control/\n [open-tabs-next-to-current]: https://addons.mozilla.org/cs/firefox/addon/open-tabs-next-to-current/\n [focus-on-left-tab-after-closing]: https://addons.mozilla.org/cs/firefox/addon/focus-on-left-tab-aft-closing/\n\nLicense\n-------\n\nThis add-on is released under the MIT License.
