How to enable single window mode in Safari

A great tip to make all your clicked links open in one window. If you’re a tab junkie, you know how annoying it is when a link opens in a new window. Even with the great Safari plug-in, Saft, this was hard to control.

In the latest Safari 3.1 Apple finally added a (hidden) preference! To enable single window mode and have all links open in a new tab that would normally have opened in a new window, we only need to enable the TargetedClicksCreateTabs preference using the following command (paste it into Terminal):
defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true
