Hot Tabs

HotTabs provides commands and matching shortcuts that will let you press:

  • Cltr+Num1 to go to the first pinned document tab,
  • Ctrl+Num2 to go to the second pinned document tab
  • Ctrl+Num3 to go to the third pinned document tab
  • etc

and 

  • Cltr+Alt+Num1 to go to the first unpinned document tab,
  • Ctrl+Alt+Num2 to go to the second unpinned document tab
  • Ctrl+Alt+Num3 to go to the third unpinned document tab
  • etc

It selects tabs in the document well.
Like these:

Note that there is one pinned tab on the left and three unpinned tabs following it.
Ctrl+Num1 will go to the first pinned tab. Ctrl+Alt+Num1 will go to the first unpinned tab.

With the commands exposed in Tools->Options->Keyboard, you can apply your own keyboard shortcuts to these commands.
