149512 - [RFE] command+w to close tabs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 150244

(Camino Graveyard :: Toolbars & Menus, enhancement)

Description

[Paul Baker]

Any chance of getting rid of command+y to close tabs and going with command+w
like in Mozilla? I'm very used to using command+w (I have been using tabs since
the first nightly they appeared in, back when the only way to get a tab was
command+t) and I keep closing whole chimera windows with a bunch of tabs.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a bunch of tabs.
2. type command+w.

Actually Results:
Entire window closes. Cursing ensues...

Expected Results:
Current tab closes. Next tab is displayed.

Command-W is a shortcut for close window in virtually every application under
the Sun. Why would you assume it would close a tab?

Propose this be WONTFIX.

Because that is how it currently works in Mozilla 1.0. If there are tabs
present, command+w only closes the current tab. Once all tabs are closed,
command+w then closes the current window.

In fact, when tabs are present you can hit shift+command+w to close the window
with all it's tabs.
