Is there a way to have Opera open without having open tabs? "Allow
Empty Workspace" in the Opera Preferences Editor should make that
happen, but alas it does not. When you open Opera there is a blank
tab, when you close the blank tab Opera will close. In my eyes highly
annoying.
Thanks.

Mac OS X does not know the concept of empty workspaces, thus Opera follows
the platform rules. Please note that closing the last tab does not close
Opera it just closes the window, Opera is still running. This can lead to
some confusion when it comes to sessions or tabs and the setting "Continue
from last time"
-- again it's how the Mac works.

I know what you try to do, but Opera OS X doesn't have that checkbox.
Thanks anyway.

I know it isn't shutdown, but it just annoys me. I am in the habit of
closing tabs before opening others and everytime I close the last tab,
Opera vanishes. An empty workspace would let me open up the Bookmarks
and go to the next batch of sites. Now I have to "start" Opera afresh
and go to the next. Both Firefox and Safari will not let me close the
last one, so they don't close down.

This is exactly what Firefox and Safari do. Even though it doesn't
completely "blank out", it is 95%% of what I had in mind. Thank you
very much :)
