Hot Exit as default?

#1

Is it possible to use “Hot Exit” as default everytime sublime is going to be closed? Would be great to use “Hot Exit” regardless how Sublime is going to be closed.

Thoughts on that?

I’d like to know this too and how to assign a shortcut (^q is the default on most linux apps)

Stupid question here, but what is the difference between Exit and Hot Exit?

Hot Exit keeps unsaved tabs open and is not asking to save them if you quit the app. On the next start the unsaved tabs are re-opened again. It’s handy if you’re using the texteditor as a scratchpad. Usually i make my notes in just opened/new tabs. But I don’t want/need to save them. That’s the resaon for me. :smile:

You can override Alt+F4 to do that:

{ "keys": "alt+f4"], "command": "hot_exit" }

Hey, that sounds like a good idea. I vote for an option to use Hot Exit as default!

Even if it was an option for true/false :smile:

Much agreed on this - being able to close the app with the standard Windows X or system icon menu, and have that trigger a hot exit would be awesome. I’ve remapped alt-f4, which works, but just reminds me how little I use that vs. the Windows close button.
