tabs

Small gripping strips

Tabs are small projecting flaps or strips that allow you to grab, open, or organize something: the tab on a soda can, tabs on file folders.

To keep tabs on someone is to monitor them.

A tab is also a bill, especially at a bar: Put it on my tab.

In computing, tabs are separate pages within a browser window or sections in an interface.

The tab key moves the cursor to preset positions.
