quickcommands

An add-on for Firefox 57+ that adds a fast way to access open tabs and links from History.

Inspired by Vivaldi's Quick Commands Menu.

Installation

Just click the button below to get to the installation page:

Click here!

Usage

Open the quick-commands window with Alt+Shift+R Search and browse with the Up/Down Arrows. Open the selected tab with Enter. Esc closes the window, and your current shortcut for closing a tab (Ctrl+W/Cmd+W) will work just as well

Permissions

The following permissions are requested upon installation (most are quite self-explanatory):

  • tabs: For searching and switching between current open tabs
  • history: To be able to search and display links from history
  • bookmarks: To be able to search and display links from your bookmarks
  • storage (from 1.0.0 onwards): To save your theme preferences (and sync them between devices if you are logged into your Firefox Account)
  • search (from 1.5.0 onwards): To be able to trigger a search using the default Search engine configured in Firefox

Ideas/Suggestions/Bugs

Known:

  • Open Settings/Downloads/other internal Firefox pages: on hold (most about: pages cant' be opened from extensions)
  • Add an entry for 'Search with...': on hold (there's no search engines API yet and I'd rather not hardcode any search engine links into the extension)
  • Open issues here on Github
