    I know that if I use chromium-browser --app=http://... it will open a new Application Shortcut window without the tab bar or navigation bar. I want to know the command that will open a webpage in a regular Chromium window, or if one is already open, open it in a new tab.

    Wow, it was that simple? Well, thank you very much, now my chrome quicklists can be extra efficient!

    You can also force multiple windows/sessions by adding --data-dir=/tmp/identifier, for example.

    Is it possible to avoid it exiting when the browser is opened? I am running an interactive gradation script where I want to open the browser at a certain step, and wait for it to closed. Running "firefox" CLI does not exit before the browser is closed, I am going to use that for now.
