Ctrl+Q exit

Post by Segfault »

I'm a keyboard user, Handbrake is the only application in my PC which does not terminate with Ctrl+Q. Would it be too much to ask? Every time I want to close Handbrake my hand hits Ctrl+Q a few times before brain catches up ...

I didn't realize that was an accessibility convention in linux. I'll look into it. Requests and recommendations are welcome, but they really belong in github issues where we can track them.

Thank you! Ctrl+Q is much easier to access than Alt+F4. As a matter of fact, it is less effort to use mouse than hit Alt+F4. While X is not really Linux, it is still part of FOSS, which, unlike commercial software, is user friendly by nature.
