Anyway to recover the entire list of tabs in Dustman?

Hey, how's it going?
I have a ton of tabs dustman has closed but now I'd like to re-open ALL of them, is there a way to do that? Is there a way to maybe export the urls or perhaps Open all in new window kind of thing? Thanks!

Hey Weej, thanks for the suggestion. Does this happen very often to you? I'm not sure I want to add another button to the panel if you only need it very seldom.

Hi @mbid
Hope you're doing well and You're welcome! I can understand not bloating the plugin. To be clear I probably wouldnt use a "Re-open all tabs right now" option (primarily since I deal with hundreds of them between 150~200). However I DO frequently use batches of URLs that Dustman saves.

If I remember correct I originally was looking for the option to select specific tabs in the Dustman list (e.g. 40 urls) and then just click on Open Selected and have those URLs open in a new window. Of course that doesn't exist in Dustman so it became very time consuming to go through all 600 tabs Dustman had saved and I was running out of time so I went with "Hey can we re-open ALL tabs" the idea being at least this way they'll open and then I can manually close them.

Possibly related, I just installed this to try it out, had 100+ tabs open and didn't realise 20 minutes wasn't 20 minutes starting now but 20 minutes since whenever and immediately lost all tabs and the default number of files listed in the dustbin is... 0. Firefox "recently closed tabs" only gave me back a couple of them, is this a good default? Either way it would nice to have a button to undo closing a huge amount of tabs.

Yeah, sorry about that. I've changed the defaults.
