Re: Tabs: Magically Growing Tabs?

[Juri Linkov <juri@linkov.net>]

Sorry, I tried everything but can't reproduce the problem.

Some "Home" tabs have the property explicit-name equal to t,
but duplicates have no explicit-name.

Could you add auditory notifications to emacspeak
to notify when the number of tabs grows?

One suitable place is to define a new function for
the variable tab-bar-tabs-function, then call
tab-bar-tabs from your function, and also to count tabs
when a tab command is called.
