  Boost your productivity by navigating between tabs faster and more efficient!
  
  Switching between tabs becomes tedious when having many different tabs. Utab fixes that by adding a simple offset overlay to your tabs and letting you jump instantly using your keyboard.
  
  Each tab shows a small offset indicator. Just read the number or letter, type the shortcut, and you’re there — no mouse, no searching.
  
  Mac command:
  Cmd + i + offset: move to the right by offset amount.
  Cmd + u + offset: move to the left by offset amount.
  cmd + b: move to the previous tab.
  
  Windows command:
  Alt + i + offset: move to the right by offset amount.
  Alt + u + offset: move to the left by offset amount.
  Alt + b: move to the previous tab.
  
  Example:
  The desired tab to move to is 5 tabs to the right.
  Mac: Cmd+i+5
  Window: Alt+i+5
  
  Simple, fast, and surprisingly fun — Utab turns tab switching into a quick, muscle-memory action so you can stay focused on what matters.
  
  V1.1 (latest):
  + Better efficiency in rendering by caching favicon.
  + Jump back feature.
  + Allow tab switching while editing.

  Boost your productivity by navigating between tabs faster and more precisely.
