This download contains two macros:

- @Browser Set @Previous and Current @Tab When Win Title Changes
Both were uploaded in a Disabled State.
These macros are based in large part on the great macros written by
@kevin_funderburg. See Select Previously USED Safari Tab (not previous tab)
Primary Changes
The primary changes I made to @kevin_funderburg's macros:
- Extended to include both Safari and Chrome Browsers
