Looks great! I'll wait for the OSX version. Also - vim or emacs shortcuts would be appreciated.

Yeah, sorry. I developed this on my Thinkpad and I didn't really want to dev this in a hackintosh VM. My fear is that even if I develop a OSX version, it will become stale because I don't use it regularly. I abstracted all the platform-specific stuff, so it should be really easy for anyone wanting to add OSX support. I'll happily help/guide anyone.

Being open source and hosted on Github, I doubt that will be a problem. The Mac community is rather active.

By the way, here's my vote for VIM keybindings!

Do you have a Paypal address that we could donate to?

You will be in good company! The only reason I use FF anymore is Tree Style Tabs. But now that they're transitioning their addon framework, I'm forced to choose between new goodies and critical addons (for me) like TST. Can't wait to try this!

TreeStyleTabs and Vimperator are what keep me in Firefox. Any decent alternative would be amazing.

Yes, this.

Although, for a Vimperator replacement because of the breaking FF/Vimperator upgrades, I've found VimFX to be pretty awesome. I had to write some configuration scripts to get d/D to drop tabs like Vimperator, but other than that it works very well.

I'll take a look at VimFX, thanks. Would you mind sharing your configs?
