Description

This extension glues windows together.

This simple organization tool puts all of your Chrome tabs together into one window with a single click.

The new window has your tabs arranged in the same order your windows were, and makes the selected tab in your current window be the new selected tab, so you won't lose track of where your tabs were or what you were doing.

It has an option to include minimized windows.

It works great with Tab Scissors (http://bit.ly/mh6E5L), which splits your window into two convenient side-by-side windows, so that you can rearrange your tabs in groups.

Version 1.2 Update: You can now also perform a glue or cut using a shortcut specified on the chrome extensions page. Default is Alt+S to cut, Alt+G to glue, Alt+A to glue all (including minimized windows)

This let me recover data from an unresponsive Chrome window! I was saving a piano improvisation — work that I surely couldn't reproduce — when the modal save dialog froze up the window due to some Chrome bug. I could tell that the tab was still alive because it would respond to resizing the window, but I couldn't interact with the window beyond moving/resizing it — no clicks or keyboard input would do anything, including shortcuts. I tried xdotool (a desktop automation tool), I tried puppeteer (a browser automation tool), nothing worked. Eventually I realized I could open a new window from the command line. I tried using chrome://inspect#pages, but when clicking inspect, it opened the devtools docked to the window that I couldn't interact with! Luckily I remembered this extension, installed it, and blam! Not only did I recover my data, but I recovered my tabs completely.
