For Sophisticated KM/IM we need to see the Window Title as part of the results list. #95

The potential for building a sophisticated KM/IM using over a dozen FF windows spread across a dozen plus Desktops is terrific to Flat out great. It takes a while to develop and get used to this, but MS/Windows 11 makes those locations stick thru cycles, and the multiple FF windows with several hundred tabs (offloaded frequently to a bookmarks file) have been rock stable for at least 2 years now. Thank you developers! - (as long as you have Unload Tabs set to auto unload after X minutes to aggressively prevent memory abuse.) Works a charm. Right now it's easy to send multiple tabs and groups of tabs to any window. And it's easy to give Each Window a non-arbitrary title using Window Titler. (Hint: Desktop # + function.) However, except for your tabsearch there has been no way to jump between tabs in different windows on different desktops. Think of it - that's quite a stunt! Congratulations! And it works great. I just turned on show last-find which will help tremendously since there is no "last tab" short cut key for tabs in different windows. Your TabSearch is wonderful! But often I use tab-mover to migrate tabs together into the right window, which is not supported by tabsearch if the window isn't listed. You can see the tabs you want migrate toward based on a common keyword -- but not the window you want to send-to. You have to search the tab, go to the tab, check the window, then go back to the first tab. A real work-stopper. Anyway - this is a serious production machine and it needs access to the Window Title as part of the List for tabsearch - for every tab.
I'd be happy to provide any help that I can. JohnAnthonyDimeglio@cluemail.com.
