    Hello,

    I love Notepad++ and have come to rely on it quite heavily. However, one thing that has always annoyed me is that CTRL-F4 does nothing. I see in version 2.2 the keyboard shortcut was added in, but it has since disappeared. The standard behavior for CTRL-F4 is to close a window within an application. I use this functionality so often that I have one of my mouse buttons mapped to CTRL-F4, but sadly it doesn't work in Notepad++

    Any chance this keyboard shortcut could be added back in?

      You can set this yourself in the shortcut mapper - from the settings menu.  Just change the "close" option to Ctrl-F4 instead of the default Ctrl-W.

      Cheers,
      Dave.
