Hello Kevin,

Nb does any one know how to open a new tab so it opens your home page
and not a blank one?

If you've got a home button on the toolbar, middle (mouse button) click
on that.





$ firefox -new-tab <homePage>

This will either start ff with your homepage or add a new tab to an already running version of ff.

Perhaps give this an alias...?

alias fh = 'firefox -new-tab <homepage>'

Then just "fh" from the command line?

Perhaps not want you want since delving into the command line seems a bit mental just to do this simple thing. lol ?

Best wishes
roly
