Google Chrome for Mac getting confirm to quit option

Filed under: Google, Browsers

Those of you who use Google Chrome on a Mac will soon have a handy option added to your browser of choice. It's called 'confirm to quit', and it does exactly what you'd expect. Upon activating the confirmation, Chrome will display a prompt if you press Command+Q -- which you'll then need to hold for another second and a half to actually quit. It's handy for those times when you meant to tap Command+W to close only your current window, but missed. Should you quit via the menu bar, the prompt will not appear.

Revision 64920 marks the feature's arrival in the Chromium for Mac builds, and users who want to give it a go can enable confirm to quit on the about:flags page. In case the warning Chrome provides isn't enough, remember: about:flags can crash your browser, warp your LPs, and cause premature baldness.

Here's hoping the feature makes its way to Chrome on other operating systems as well. Anyone who's ever gotten a bit trigger happy while closing tabs and accidentally shut their whole browser down would probably welcome a confirm to close option.
