a lot of very interesting ideas in this thread. [op here.]
thank you all. still assimilating [which takes me time].
onetab looks rather useful, but the reviews say it loses data, perhaps
due to a 400 tab magic number. i'd be concerned i'd get to that
number for some reason even if i started fresh, then forget about it,
then lose data. the website says it will not lose data.
[also, i fear starting fresh, as gmail freqyuently thinks my ip is not
mine, and not starting fresh appeases it.]
spookfox looks similar to onetab with org goodness attached. when it
gets a bit more stable, i will think about what to do to integrate it.
it does definitely look wonderful at first glance.
maybe, to start, i will use just a single place in my bookmarks.org type file
[which i use for manual copy all tabs or whatever just because firefox
loses tabs every so often; it's not that useful currently]. i have
long wanted somehint kind of similar for my org forest, scatered
throughout. i hvave not tried it yet.
one little point about the searching for tabs example was searching for
my own text in a text box, which makes the task a bit more complex i'd
imagine, as not in url. but it is an open-ended q.
tabfs idea looks very interesting also. i'm not sure i am up for
fuse, but standard shell tools would be /great/.
task manager idea is also interesting. i wonder if there is an equiv
in linux. i don't use proced or such enough to know.
emacs [incl org] are powerful and understandable; firefox has
limitations. seems [to me] like loads of opportunity there.
