Sublime - Close file without saving - sublimetext3

This has been bothering me for ages.
In Sublime, I know cmd+W will close a file but how do I toggle to the "Don't Save" option if I just want to close a file without saving?

Press cmd-'d' (the d stands for for Don't)

For mac, try:
quit the application (CMD + q)
remove the local sublime session with:
rm ~/Library/Application\ Support/Sublime\ Text\ 3/Local/Session.sublime_session
restart Sublime

It seems to me that the accepted answer doesn't quite address the question, but provides a workaround.
Consider the following excellent answer, which allows closing a file without the dialogue being displayed: https://superuser.com/a/1188135/73736.
In addition to the accepted answer / workaround, the default MacOS shortcut cmd+delete works fine in the dialogue!
Alternatively, if you have System Prefs > Keyboard > Shortcuts: Full Keyboard Access "All controls" selected, then "Don't Save" will be have an outline around it, and can be selected by hitting space, whilst enter triggers "Save".

A hack would be to press 'close other tabs' and click continuously on 'Close without Saving' as mouse pointer will always be at same location.
Will take some seconds.

Ubuntu Users:
In short: Ctrl+W > Alt (hold for 1s) > W
Longer version: Ctrl+W will attempt to close the file and brings up this prompt when file has unsaved changes.
In order to Close Without Saving just tap and hold the Alt key for a second, underlines appear on one character of all 3 options and hit W to close without saving. Other options can be accessed with C and S as in screenshot.

How to undo/redo user operations?

The situation is:
Open a file
Drag minimap to the middle of this long file
Click somewhere on the line I want to edit
Intend to press Home to go to the head of the line.
Accidentally press Ctrl + Home
Am taken to the head of the file.
QUESTION
Is there a shortcut to return to the line I want to edit?
From the creator of Sublime Text at https://forum.sublimetext.com/t/soft-undo/307
Undo/redo in Sublime Text normally only steps through actions that modify the buffer, skipping over those that simply modify the selection. Changes to the selection are still part of the undo history, and can be stepped through using Ctrl+U/Ctrl+Shift+U (softUndo/softRedo commands). These key bindings aren't displayed in the menu, and I'm wondering if anyone has discovered them on their own.
I rarely use them myself, but did today, so it got me wondering if anyone else does
Change Ctrl in the above to Cmd if using a Mac.

Can't go to next/previous edit point in Brackets with Emmet

Support for Emmet's next and previous edit point seems to be missing or what? Every time I press CTRL+ALT+--> my screen rotates. This is happening on windows only.
EDIT: You can disable the default keyboard shortcuts in control panel but in that case any application won't be able to use those too, nor is there a way remap the keys in Brackets easily!
All available keybindings are defined in keymap.json.
source: https://github.com/emmetio/brackets-emmet
To open this keymap file, first open Brackets, then go to Help > Show Extensions Folder. Open the user folder, then modify keymap.json to however you prefer your shortcuts. Reload Brackets Editor when finished.
My keymap was located inC:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Brackets\extensions\user\brackets-emmet
You will need to change these two lines:
"next_edit_point": "Ctrl-Alt-Right",
"prev_edit_point": "Ctrl-Alt-Left",

How to change the functionality of a button so that it can work as the backspace button

Okay, so I have a Compaq laptop [American keyboard].
It is a few days that the backspace button is broken - I mean, it is totally popped off. It ought to be replaced but it is hard to find it out.
Now, I was wondering whether or not there was a way to change the functionality of another button so that it can replace the functionality of the backspace button.
It is not the DEL button. It is the BACKSPACE button [above the Enter button].
I knew that through some binary numbers it is possible to change the functionality of a button. For example, I can change the DEL button in the Number Lock so that instead of working as DEL button or dot, it will work as backspace.
Is it possible?
Another way on Ankit's recommendation:
After installing the AutoHotkey, creating the short script and saving it with .ahk extension, just put the file in the startup folder :) click Start(or windows logo)---All Program---startup folder :) then re-start pc.
If on windows, you may use AutoHotkey, install it, create a file with .ahk extension and put following code in it.
F1::Send {BackSpace} ; Makes the 'F1' key send 'BackSpace' key.
Then run the above script on startup.

Sublime Text 3: do not close tabs automatically

I am navigating the code of a big JavaScript library using Sublime Text 3. So I need to open a lot of tabs and switch between them to capture the code co-reference. However, Sublime closes 'unused' tabs automatically for me.
How to disable it? I googled but cannot find a solution. I find a shortcut ctrl+shift+t to restore the most recent closed file, but that is not enough. I need to disable the automatic closing, and that would be better if someone shows me the short key to "display and select a file from all open files". Thanks.
When you single-click on a file in the sidebar, Sublime displays it in a "temp" view that is overwritten the next time you single-click on a file. To open a file in a "permanent" tab that stays open even when other files are opened, you simply need to double-click on the file in the sidebar.
A more direct solution that I find mildly preferable, at least until I can retrain myself to double-click when I want a tab to stay open:
In the Settings, set preview_on_click to false.
This is not quite what I want since it all it does is disable the behavior to open a preview tab on single click -- thereby forcing the user to always double click. But perhaps by working this way for a week or so I will be able to retrain my ingrained assumptions and can go back to the default behavior.
Double click that file on left sidebar you do not want to close automatically.

Shortcut for deleting a line in dreamweaver?

What is the shortcut for deleting the current line where the cursor positioned.
ex: eclipse have crtl+d
To delete line(s)
Mac: Command+Shift+D
Windows: Ctrl+Shift+D
https://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/keyboard-shortcuts.html
There are no direct shortcuts as far as I know but here is a list of commands for dreamweaver.
http://cpaoffers.com/design/dw-shortcuts.php
My typical method to do this is to hit the home > shift+end > del.
Or you could try shift+up or shift+down to select the line above or below and then hit delete.
Danilo Celic's answer helped me with CS6, just use the second one. Although it's in Japanese, just install and use it.
If you want to know more: Then, find the installed files in your own
C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\[your CS6 language]\Configuration\Commands
There you can open the just-installed files and check them. The comments are in Japanese. The code are in Javascript and are easy to read.
There are 5 commands in that file. To use only the "Delete line" function: In CS6, open history panel, go to design mode, do any action like press a key, right click on that action from history panel and record that action. Then you can find the record action in the Commands folder mentioned above, and then you can copy the javascript from the downloaded one into your own recorded action file.
I've seen two extensions that add the delete line functionality:
http://xtnd.us/dreamweaver/codeextras
http://yoropan.com/en/archives/544
I haven't used either one. I've been told that the first one may not work in Dreamweaver CS6, no idea about the other one. once installed, you should be able to add a keyboard shortcut (Edit -> Preferences, Dreamweaver -> Preferences on Mac) for functionality that you're looking for.
You can add a custom keyboard shortcut for deleting lines in Dreamweaver.
Dreamweaver uses Brackets for its text editor, and this is what handles the Delete Line command, not the traditional Menu system for rebinding most other Dreamweaver commands.
Create a Brackets keyboard shortcut configuration file.
Windows: %APPDATA%\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Brackets\keymap.json
Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2019/en_US/Configuration/Brackets/keymap.json (untested)
Create an override in this file, according to the Brackets User Key Bindings JSON Data Format. Make sure you use the - separator between key names, not +.
{
"overrides": {
"Ctrl-E": "edit.deletelines"
}
}
Rebind any conflicting keyboard shortcuts in Dreamweaver. In my Ctrl+E example above, it collides with Quick Edit.
In Dreamweaver, go to Edit → Keyboard Shortcuts.
Make a new Set if you're using the default Dreamweaver Standard Set.
Find the command you want to change. Quick Edit is in the Code Editing section.
Highlight the shortcut you want to modify.
If you want to unbind that shortcut, click the - button.
Otherwise, rebind that shortcut by typing the new shortcut in the Press Key field, and then clicking Change.
Click OK to save your changes.
If your change is not persisted, you can usually fix this by editing the following files.
%APPDATA%\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Menus\Custom Sets\*.xml
%APPDATA%\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Menus\menus.xml
Restart Dreamweaver for your new Brackets keyboard shortcuts to be read.
To bind other commands besides Delete Line, see the full Brackets Shortcuts command ID column.
I used these steps with Adobe Dreamweaver 2019 (19.2) on Windows.
