Is there any way to have Safari 5 (OS X) ask before exiting? I have fat fingers and often hit Command-Q when I want Command-W.

In the tabs section of Safari's preferences, if you check the third option "Confirm before closing multiple tabs or windows", Safari will ask before exiting if you have more than one tab or window open. It won't ask for confirmation if you have only one open, but from what you're saying, that shouldn't be a major issue if you meant to close the window anyway. |

I remap Safari’s Quit menu item shortcut to ⌥⌘Q (Option-Command-Q) using the “Keyboard Shortcuts” tab of the “Keyboard & Mouse” preference panel in System Preferences. |

Safari will prompt if you've edited a text field but not submitted the form yet. Otherwise, you can get back to where you were after an accidental Quit by going to History > Reopen All Windows From Last Session. |
