Do you ever hit ctrl+w instead of ctrl+f and lose your page? - GoFuckYourself.com

Damnit, I hate when that happens!

Ctrl + Shift + T

I can't say I've broken Ctrl+W into my keyboard habits and W is thankfully nowhere near F so haven't made that accident. Obvioustly X/C/V are my friends, but I'm especially loving Z lately because I can take back mistakes in typing posts and whatnot. Ctrl+Z is god.

I would be pretty concerned if I accidentally hit W when trying for F. I would stay out of root if I had that poor of typing skills.

Opera has had Ctrl-Z for restoring closed tabs for ages now...

Pity that Ctrl-Q in stead of Ctrl-W cannot be undone

Actually, it's the first time I've used it, had to see what it did.

Here I am again.

Dammmnnnnn I just did trying to find out what Ctrl+W does.

I don't get Ctrl-F and Ctrl-W mixed up, but I occasionally hit Q instead of W. In Seamonkey (and I guess FF?) that closes EVERY browser window.

I'd like to shake the hand of the genius that came up with that shortcut.

Usually what happens is if you are in shell in a server and using an editor program, ctrl+w is SEARCH. So if you've been doing a lot of searching lately or are going back and forth between shell and a browser ; you may hit ctrl+w in your browser and blammo kill your windows lol

the w is not next to the F, maybe you should check your keyboard habbits
