“As I already mentioned, the major feature of this
release is tabbed browsing. I liked that Dillo uses the usual
shortcuts for using it, like Ctrl + L for the address bar or Ctrl +
T for opening a new tab. Don’t expect full compatibility with
Firefox shortcuts though. For closing tabs use the Ctrl + Q
shortcut, or use the File -> Close menu option, although I think
tabs really lack a button for closing them (and there’s no reason
for it not to be in there), doing it on the keyboard is slow when
using it with a mouse.

“When you right-click on a link, a popup menu appears and the
‘Open Link in New Tab’ option is just under the mouse pointer.
Considering that usually, when you right-click on a link you will
want to open it in a new tab (or save link as…), this feature is
pretty smart and fast compared to browsers where you have to move
the mouse over this option.”
