[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Esc to Exit (#1124)

[Dan Dascalescu]

I use Geany as the external editor for my file managers (Krusader, Double Commander etc.). One very common operation is to open a file in the edit, inspect it for a few seconds (scrolling around), then exit, ideally without keeping the file as an open tab, since it wasn't opened from Geany itself, but rather from the file manager, typically while checking out a large number of files (e.g. the source files of a project).

To do this, I currently have to press Ctrl+W, then Alt+F4 (or <Primary>+Q). It would be really nice if I could define Esc as a key binding for exiting Geany, if it's pressed in the main window. Is there a way to do that? (I tried Keybindings, but pressing Esc closes the dialog that records the shortcut).
