It's been almost 1.5 years, After trying various alternatives like tabbar mode,
I've finally gotten used to C-x b
Surprisingly, I like it. Now I'm trying to bring this to the other application
I spend a lot of time on: my web browser.
I usually have about 20 web browser tabs open at any given time, and using the
mouse
to go to a specific tab just breaks my flow. I'm sure it's the same for other
people.
How do you guys overcome this? Is there a chrome extension I haven't learnt
about
yet?
I found two extensions Emacsome and ChromEmacs, with the first one attempting
to do what I want (but not going all the way)
If there's none out there, I guess I will just be hacking/forking Emacsome to
add the features I like
to see.
Basically
C-x b to switch buffers with helm/ido like autocompletion
Inside it, C-n and C-p to browse the suggestions
Is the author of Emacsome in here by any chance?
(the repo hasn't been updated since 2012)

Hi,
I'm slowly migrating from notepad++ to emacs.
I feel a bit lost because emacs doesn't show
tabs. I work on multiple projects, I get distracted by various things,
but when I come back to the seat it is the tabs that
remind me which project I was last working on.
I know C-x C-b pops it up, but involves multiple keys and it also
takes a a lot of screen real estate.
I'm wondering how others overcame this.
