What is Hotkey Tabs?
Hotkey Tabs is a Firefox add-on that enables users to quickly switch between and load frequently visited webpages using keyboard shortcuts. With Alt-number keyboard shortcuts, users can easily navigate to specified websites or webpages, either by switching to an existing tab or opening a new tab. Users can customize the action for each hotkey, such as switching/opening sites or pages, and even using regular expression matching to determine tab matches.
