Add Ctrl/CMD+Q to shortcut keys #254

andrewappleton commented 4 years ago

In MacOS & many desktop Linux applications Ctrl/CMD+Q is the standard shortcut key for quitting the application. It would be nice to add this in to Tusk as it becomes frustrating not being able to quit the application without selecting the menu item. I realise that not all Linux desktop apps follow this convention, but it is, at least, implemented in a lot of GUI apps on Linux too. In MacOS, it's the default, and can be used with the CMD+TAB sequence to sequentially quit out of many apps. I have tried accessing the 'Edit Shortcut Keys', but that does not seem to bring up any dialog to allow you to create a shortcut key for this.

Yes on macOS all apps should support the "Command-Q" shortcut.

Also on macOS, ideally the "Exit" menu item in the "Tusk" app menu would be changed to "Quit" for full consistency, if possible.

As for manually adding the shortcut, that should work:

  1. go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts
  2. go to "App shortcuts" in the list on left of screen
  3. press the "+" button below the right panel
  4. find Tusk in the list of installed apps
  5. enter "Exit" into the "Menu Title" field
  6. click into the "Keyboard Shortcut" field and press "Command+Q" on your keyboard
