Notes:
* To enable this extension in "incognito" window mode or for "file:///" URLs, you will need to provide permissions for this by going to "chrome://extensions".
* Close Tab by Double Right Click implements an alternative approach for closing "chrome:///", "about:blank" and other special tabs. This is due to technical limitations of Chrome API. In these tabs, you would find a "Close Tab" context-menu entry which is shown when you right click anywhere on the page.
* To configure the extension further, please visit "chrome://extensions/" > "Details" (for this extension) > "Extension options"
* The idea of this extension is inspired by "Rights To Close" extension for Mozilla Firefox.

- (2022-05-10) E S: For single handed use, this makes closing tabs a lot faster. The double right click option will not work for some pages like Chrome Settings/Extentions/NewTab page, but for most other pages, it works fine. For the cases where it will not work, this also adds a "close tab" option within the right click context menu.
- (2020-12-14) leoshone: 希望在双击的时候不要显示右键菜单,按住Ctrl点击右键才显示菜单。 参考:Right Click Opens Link New Tab Correct Order https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/right-click-opens-link-ne/mhjkeimpgjokbjmioglhlngefbddppnn

- (2018-06-13) Felipe Kowalski: Simplesmente não funciona!
- (2018-06-10) Lance Yang: does not work at all
- (2018-02-16) John Smith: Работает, проверено на Хром версии 64 х64. Пока только 4 из 5. Почти как в фф (Rights To Close от shandev). Но нужно чтобы закрывались абсолютно любые открытые страницы, в том числе chrome://extensions/ , Новая вкладка и т.п. А если закрывается последняя вкладка - то чтобы был выбор - закрыть хром или открыть пустую вкладку.

- (2015-12-26) Miguel Gugu: asco
- (2015-11-10) Appreciate the effort, but coming up with new and worse ways to do something, which has already been done properly is pretty stupid - what's wrong with double left click on tab? I've been using it for 15 years on Maxthon and absolutely love it. Unfortunately no developer cares to do it for Chrome. It is available as only 1 of many functions of a very heavy extension, which i don't care for either. Shame, that after years such simple function is still unavailable for Chrome.

- (2014-08-15) Carlos Glufke: funciona bem, mas desnecessario
