I've got tabbrowser preferences, and I'm mostly satisfied, but is there an
extension that will allow "undo close tab"?

You might try this ?? at alt.fan.mozilla and
netscape.public.mozilla.general as well.

Do you find TBE to be buggy?

I love TBE, but I couldn't get it to work right on Ff 1.0, so yes, I guess
you could say it's buggy.

I have 1.01. Did you go back to an earlier version?

But while I am presently using Tabbrowser Preferences, I did find
Tabbrowser Extensions to be buggy, and my reply was in reference to TBE.

Another choice would be to not use an extension at all.

Reveal More Tab/Window Options

There are some hidden options for the Tabbed Browsing that will allow
you to force links that open new windows to open in the current or a new
tab. First, add the following code to your user.js file:

// Reveal more tab/window options:
user_pref("browser.tabs.showSingleWindowModePrefs", true);

Restart Firefox and go to Tools > Options... (Edit > Preferences...
under Linux and MacOS X), select Advanced and click on Tabbed Browsing.
The following options should be visible:
Force links that open new windows to open in:
the same tab/window as the link
a new tab

The options should be self-explanatory.
Decide which New Windows to Block

In the tip above, you learned how to reveal the Force links that open
new windows... option. If you activated this, all windows that a web page
wants to open will be diverted to either the current tab/window or a new
tab. However, this also applies to small pop-up windows (e.g. a poll
results window or the ICQ window in go.icq.com), which really should be
opened in a new window. To change this behavior so it doesn't divert new
windows that are spawned by JavaScript, add the following code to your
user.js file:

/* Force New Windows Restrictions
0: Default - Divert *all* new windows to current tab/window or new
tab
1: Don't divert *any* windows spawned by JS
2: Don't divert JS windows that include size/placement/toolbar info
*/
user_pref("browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction", 2);

There was one on .8 FF, but I could never get it to work. It would
modify the toolbar and all but the "undo last closed tab" button did
nothing.

It's one of the things I miss most, that is available in
Maxthon/MyIE2.

I have a profile running with firefox's native single window mode +
undoclosetabs, FLST, miniT. They all work as expected.

How do you do this? That is, what app do I use to open a .js file?
