I second the middle click on Tab request

This is becoming a standard - not just on FF and IE ... also Safari, Pidgin, Visual Studio, SQL Server Management Studio, the list goes on.

Even the competition (notepad++) supports middle-click to close a tab.

I've "added" a middle click tab close to to Textpad using AutoHotkey like so:

Code: Select all

~MButton::
MouseGetPos, , , id, control

If( control = "MDIClient1" ) {	
	Send {LButton}	
	Sleep 100
	Send ^{f4}
}
return
