Description

adds a pin tab button so you don't have to right click to pin or unpin.

This application puts a pin to the right of your address bar. Click it to pin or unpin a tab. This is useful to people who pin and unpin tabs a lot and hates the lengthy process of right clicking and finding the "pin tab" option.

You can also use the hotkey alt-p to pin/unpin a tab.

Thank you to clker.com for their images of pins:

Also thanks to livibetter who created the application "keep last two tabs". I used his code as a kickstart to make this application.

I never realized how much of a pain right-clicking to pin a tab was until I installed this handy tool. Now all i have to do is click the button and the tab I'm on is pinned. Done. My web experience has improved since cutting down on the number of mouse clicks I have to make. After months of use I can say Pinner is one of my most cherished add-ons ... Anyone who is a chronic tab-pinner should agree. I only gave it 4 stars because the button could be more attractive. UPDATE: Everything I wrote about this prior still holds true. It's a very useful tool to have. However, since I've discovered 'Pinkeys' (which simply pins/unpins tabs using a hotkey) I just had to make the switch. Bye-bye unattractive icon!
