saving unsaved tabs in tab groups #88

Open JBulloch opened 7 months ago

JBulloch commented 7 months ago

when you have a tab that is open with working information/notes(ie xml responses you are trying to parse, notes from a client call describing an issue, a list of tasks to work on that feature ...etc) but you do not actually want to save the tab as a file in the working directory you must close the tab out and can not restore the tab because the notes were not saved. An easy solution with out work to tabstronuat is to have some notes directory where you save that you can restore the tab. However i would hate to have a directory full of notes just always building because when i am done working on that particular feature that i have grouped i would have to go to that directory manually and delete the notes file.

A possible solution is a close/minimize tabs feature that closes files and saves them in a tmp somewhere.

I use this extenstion for context switching as i am working on 10-15 different issues and features at any given time.
