Hi -
In Maxthon and some other browsers, one of the built-in choices at
startup is to open a single tab that lists all the tabs from your
prior session(s).

I'd like to make this happen in Chrome, vs. having to click the
Session Buddy icon on the toolbar each time. So I opened Session
Buddy and saved a bookmark of the page (turns out to be 'chrome-
extension://edacconmaakjimmfgnblocblbcdcpbko/mainUI.html') I then
specified that URL within Chrome options to be opened at startup. The
page does open as expected, but just displays "loading" in both the
left and right-hand columns instead of the actual data. It just sits
like that forever unless I manually reload the page, at which point
the data appears.

The best solution, of course, would be to have an option within
Session Buddy itself to 'automatically open on browser startup' -- but
lacking that, does anyone know of a way to work around this apparent
bug?

Thanks...!

That's happening b/c the Session Buddy background process hasn't had
an opportunity to initialize the extension.

Easy enough to implement as an option. I'll try to put that into the
upcoming release.
