I used to do it with Tab Mix Plus, but it doesn't work anymore (Firefox 57) I'd like to automaticaly open what I type in address bar (location bar) in a new tab. Also when I click in a link in an external application (i.e. Thunderbird, PDF reader... whatever), I want it to be open in a new tab. I've been searching in "about:config" but I cannot find how to do it
