  5. Hey, was wondering if you might implement this feature as well, which currently still has me stuck loving avant browser: Namely, holding the right mouse button down, and scrolling up or down. If one scrolls up while doing this, it will scroll through the tabs in one direction, while scrolling down scrolls through the previous open tabs.

  9. This is exactly what I was looking for because I've been using Opera since about 1998. I tried gmote but the rocking feature isn't there. I've installed Rocker but it doesn't seem to work; Am I missing something? I'm sure it's probably something simple.

  10. AHH OHH! Apologies are in order; It just worked.

    Thanks! I love this feature.

  11. Both links broken :(. Why can't Chrome devs get their act together and get a mouse gestures plugin as good as Mouse Gestures Redox (for Firefox)? I know this is all free and provided out of the goodness of computer science majors' hearts... but I'll whine anyway :)
