Oh whoa, they added it natively?! That’s awesome!

Interestingly this option doesn't appear in the Public Beta (any of the 3 versions to date), but the cmd+1 to cmd+9 shortcuts do actually work without SafariTabSwitching, so it may not be intended long-term as an option, but normal behaviour (for public release anyway).

Safari Version 9.0 (11601.1.41)
OS X El Capitan Version 10.11 Beta (15A234d)

Sadly cmd+9 goes to the ninth tab, not the last tab.

Just updated to official Safari 9.0 on Yosemite. It's there :D

Thank you rs for the great work on this plugin.
I've used it for many years and this feature was the only missing one in Safari for myself. Great to see that Apple finally integrated this necessary UX feature.

[rs]

You're welcome :)

[tedbundyjr]

Awesome. Thanks to developer @rs who support this feature previously! Kudos!

[pmetzner]

I hope they'll also add Cmd+0 for the last tab, no matter what its actual number is.

[adzenith]

cmd+0 is used to reset the zoom level, so they probably won't do that. I have an applescript that goes to the last tab and I've bound it to cmd+9, which works great. Something like tell front window of application "Safari" to set current tab to last tab

I also just wanted to add my thanks to @rs for this plugin. It clearly meant a great deal to many of us :)

[frikova]

Yup +1! Thank you!

Thanks @rs!

[lordmortis]

thanks @rs !

[skela]

+1 Thanks @rs :D

[brlawson]

I created an account solely to say thanks @rs for being a total tab-switching boss. Your plugin single-handedly saved me by turning Safari into something that was actually usable. Seriously appreciate the hard work and all the updates along the way! About time Apple caught up to you ;)

[rs]

Thank you all for your kind messages! 😊

[ghost]

+1 on that. Big thanks @rs :-)

[fuxx]

rs, i know you are swimming in money 😛, but i want to give you something back. Your little enhancement was one of the things i would have payed for. Is their any way i could donate you?

[rs]

@fuxx it's very kind but I didn't do this for money. All your messages are worth a lot more to me :)

[lucianf]

Hi guys. Sorry if I'm missing something, but is there a way to have cmd+number ignore the pinned tabs in Cpt. Safari (either w/ this plugin or vanilla Safari)?

[ygit]

great news

[chrismo]

fyi, to build out @adzenith's option, I needed the instructions in this article: http://blog.fosketts.net/2010/08/09/assign-keyboard-shortcut-applescript-automator-service/ and even then mapping it to Cmd+9 only works if there aren't more than 9 tabs open - so I mapped that to Option+0 to always select last.

[ssent1]

Thanks @rs for making Safari a more intuitive browser. The validation from Apple confirms that this was a much desired feature. Too bad their implementation doesn't reach the bar that you set. At this point my expectation is that Cmd+9 opens the last tab, not the 9th, if the number of tabs is >9.

[fobin]

Also my thanks to @rs. This was years my first thing to install to new OS X installation. Awesome work!

[kianlavi]

Thank you @rs!!!

[Overload119]

This was essential for me - thanks @rs !

It would be helpful to include how to remove the script - otherwise you keep getting a warning dialog on Safari startup.

sudo rm -r "/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/SafariTabSwitching.bundle"

NVM - just found it :)

[skmisaac]

Thank you @rs
i also found that if there is less then 9 tabs, it will open a new tab with your plugin
but the Apple one doesn't offer this handy function

oops i reinstalled the plug-in to get back ⌘-Shift-T but seems not successful
how can I install the plug-in again in Safari 9.0.1?

[chrismo]

fwiw, after building out the @adzenith automator service, I can't find a shortcut key that works consistently well and it's slow to respond. A faster, simpler hack: Cmd+T for a new tab, then Cmd+W to close it, leaves me on the last tab - I can even press them quickly and Safari still processes both in order. (Dvorak layout makes this even easier on the hands). Still not as good as what this plugin used to do, but my best alternate so far, IMO.
