## Why to __`crob`__ ?
__`PROBLEM :`__
- If you execute ```chromium-browser``` from command line, the tab needs to be opened because of running process.
So, you need to switch to some other tab if you want to execute other commands, which probably is a waste of
time.
__`SOLUTION :`__
- Work on the same tab from where you launched `crob`.
- Save yourself from messages which are shown while running `chromium-browser` from console.
__`LITTLE MORE :`__
- Open `Chromium Browser` in background.
- Opens `new` browser window everytime if you run `crob`
__`BONUS :`__
- Fast and easy to type.
