Is there a way to save Safari tabs on quit without plugins? It seems like such a basic feature how can safari not have this? :( It's the only reason why I can't switch to Safari as my main browser. I don't want to use plugin because they always break after new versions :(
 
History > Reopen All Windows from Last Session

If you had tabs before you quit, they will be restored.
 
The tabs save automatically. After you quit Safari, reopen and and chose History-->Reopen All Windows from Last Session.
 
Can't seem to find that option in the menu, here is my menu after I relaunch safari

ah sorry, is there a way to open them by default?

Nope, not that I know of. That is something I missed after switching from Firefox, but Safari, IMHO, is much better in other ways, so I just put up with that 1 extra step to reopen all the tabs.
 
is there a way to set application specific keyboard shortcut in snow leopard for menu items?
 
I'm only just getting into these applications, but couldn't you make an automator or applescript whose sole purpose was to launch Safari, and then apply that function, and just use that script to open safari? Seems like a pain for something so easily done by Apple, but I think it would work.
