Chrome Addon - TabsLock

TabsLock lets you use your Caps Lock key to launch and focus a new Google Chrome tab from anywhere, even if Chrome isn’t running. This allows low-thought, global keyboard access to web search and navigation.

Stuff

  • Holding the Shift key while you press CapsLock will allow you to engage or disengage CapsLock normally.
  • CapsLock lovers, this is not for you.
  • TabsLock runs in the System Tray in the bottom-right of your screen - right clicking on the icon will allow you to control it.
  • If you wish to launch Chrome with a custom command line, create a desktop shortcut named ‘chromespace’ with the properties you want. If this file does not exist, TabsLock will then use the ‘Google Chrome’ desktop shortcut, and failing that, the installed exe.
  • Apple builds a 250ms CapsLock delay into the hardware of its newer keyboards, ensure you keep CapsLock down for at least that long.

    Unreliable. Will keep working even after uninstalling.

    I do not recommend it.

    You can assign keys to programs anyway so this is useless, right click google chrome icon, go to short cut click on assign key, press ctrl+alt+g and that will be your shortcut, saves using the capslock key
