Move Tab Hotkeys

This extension provides hotkeys for the following actions:

Key	Action	Description
Alt+Shift+Left	Move tab left	Moves the current tab one spot to the left. If it is at the start of the tab bar, it wraps to the end.
Alt+Shift+Right	Move tab right	Moves the current tab one spot to the right. If it is at the end of the tab bar, it wraps to the start.
Alt+Shift+0	Move tab to start	Moves the current tab to the start of the tab bar.
Alt+Shift+9	Move tab to end	Moves the current tab to the end of the tab bar.

Pinned and un-pinned tabs:

For all of the above, pinned and un-pinned tabs are treated separately.

Pinned tabs are kept in one block at the start of the tab bar, and un-pinned tabs are in a second block to the right. Whenever a tab is moved left/right or to start/end, that move happens within the part of the tab bar corresponding to it's pinned status.

Multi-selected tabs

If multiple tabs are selected, they can be moved together.

• If the tabs are not adjacent, they are made adjacent upon first move per the behavior of dragging multiple non-adjacent tabs in Firefox. This is a simpler behavior with fewer unexpected results than what happens in Chrome for that situation.
• This can be turned off by checking the "Don't move multi-selected tabs together" checkbox in the options.
• If a group of selected tabs includes both pinned and un-pinned tabs, the tabs will not be moved at all.
• On Firefox 63 and later, multiple-selection of tabs is not enabled by default. You must enable the browser.tabs.multiselect property in about:config.
