This is how I defined the tab. If you do not want to delete a wndow, you
write a different elisp code.

This makes no sense alone ; it is in connection with the same tab . This
is just other event for the same tab.

You cannot at all define menu or toolbar buttons which respond to standard
events , at which tab widgets shoud respond.
From what you say, it is worth seeing how to define the tabs as
tab-objects, as I said, such that they can be buffue-local when desired.
