Open URLs
How do I open forty addresses out of this block of text?
A list of URLs arrives in a message, a spreadsheet column or a log, usually with commas, quotes and line numbers wrapped around them. This extracts the addresses, drops the duplicates and shows you the list before opening anything - because opening forty tabs is a thing you want to agree to rather than discover.

What this actually is
every address in a block of pasted text, opened as its own tabChecking a batch of redirects, opening every result of a search you ran elsewhere, or working through a list of pages a client sent. The preview is the useful half whenever the paste came from somewhere messy.
Asked about this tool
4 of themDoes it fetch any of the addresses?
No. It opens them as tabs, which means your browser loads them exactly as if you had clicked. Nothing is requested by the extension itself.
Why does it refuse some of what I pasted?
Anything that is not http or https. A `file:` or a custom scheme in a batch open is a way to trigger something unexpected from a list somebody else wrote.
What happens with a hundred addresses?
The list is shown with its count and you decide. A hundred tabs is a decision, and the tool’s job is to make it one rather than to make it easy to make by accident.
Are trailing brackets and commas stripped?
Yes - the extraction handles the punctuation that ends up wrapped around a URL in prose, which is most of the reason a plain split on whitespace does not work.
