each time I save a file with firefox and click on 'display progress of ongoing downloads' on the top right part of the browser and click to open the containing directory, debian opens the directory, but in a new tunar window, not in a new tab in a pre existing thunar window.

It's tiring working with so many open windows. Better one window and several tabs.

This could be a Thunar setting or a xfwm4 setting in addition to being a FF setting.

Yes

Tabs and Windows

Open new thunar instances as tabs

Whenever you launch thunar while an existing thunar window is already open, a new tab will be added to the existing thunar window instead of opening a new window.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
