Sorry I just had a keyboard moment in Gmail :)
Dear DB,
That could be irritating.
Have a look on your Tw help menu.
There is an item there "A Short Manual for TeXworks"
Open it and look inside for a section under "A Customizing TEXworks" called
"A.2 Keyboard shortcuts"
In there you will find instructions for adding an .ini file that will
allow you to (re)assign shortcut keys.
I have tried adding this line to my new "shortcuts.ini"
actionClose =
in other words getting it to do nothing - not follow its default Ctrl+ W
Or assign it to
Crtl+.
Or something.
You can find the right place to put the new "shortcuts.ini" file by using the
Scripts Menu / Scripting TeXworks / Show Scripts Folder
Then go up form that folder and look for the "configuration" folder
and follow the notes in the manual section described above.
I hope that this helps,
Paul
