How do I bind "close other tabs" to a hotkey?

[xeno.by]

close_others_by_index that is used by tab context menus failed to work for me, so I fell back to enumerating the views, activating and closing them one by one. Is there a civilized solution to this problem?

I just wrote a quick plugin to do this.

# $sublime_root/Packages/User/close_other_tabs.py

import sublime, sublime_plugin

class CloseOtherTabs(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, edit):
window = self.view.window()
group_index, view_index = window.get_view_index(self.view)
window.run_command("close_others_by_index", { "group": group_index, "index": view_index})

# keybindings
...
{
"keys": ["super+alt+w"],
"command": "close_other_tabs"
}
