It appears that Ctrl-Left/Right serves to reorder tabs. For example, if you want to move tab 3 to the left, Ctrl-Left will swap it with the tab immediately to its left. This explains why you saw the tab numbers change but not the window contents. Admittedly, this is very non-obvious with only two tabs, and so should be documented. I've applied the attached patch to the sources, which I'm forwarding upstream. Best wishes, Ryan -- |_)|_/ Ryan Kavanagh | GnuPG key | \| \ http://ryanak.ca/ | 4A11C97A
