Here's a simple AppleScript that replaces the current Safari window with a collection of tabs, each open to a different URL. I've seen several scripts that attempt to do something similar, but this one improves on them in a couple of ways:
- It closes all of the old tabs, rather than just adding new ones.
- It opens the new tabs directly in AppleScript, which is much faster than using system events.
tell application "Safari"
activate
-- close all but one tab of the front window
try
repeat
close tab 2 of window 1
end repeat
end try
-- open the URLs in separate tabs
tell window 1
set URL of tab 1 to "http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/USMD0100.html"
make new tab with properties {URL:"http://www.weather.com/weather/today/College+Park+MD+20740"}
make new tab with properties {URL:"http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=20742"}
make new tab with properties {URL:"http://www.accuweather.com/us/md/college-park/20742/city-weather-forecast.asp"}
make new tab with properties {URL:"http://weather.weatherbug.com/MD/College%20Park-weather.html?zcode=z6286&zip=20742"}
end tell
end tell
