Better Ctrl-W

Closes highlighted tabs. To replace ctrl-w on Windows/Linux for Vim users!

# Better Ctrl-W Vim users are used to using the `Ctrl-w` key combination for deleting the last word when in insert mode. That's no problem for Mac OS users when using chrome, as the keyboard shortcut for closing a tab is Cmd+w. This is a problem when using the browser on either Linux or Windows machines, as `Ctrl-w` is the shortcut for closing a window. So, when editing a text, a Vim user might accidentally close the current tab by issuing a `Ctrl-w` command, sometimes losing important text that was being edited. That annoyance motivated people to discuss solutions on [a StackOverflow thread][1], in which user [`samson`][2] commented he created [a Chrome extension][3] precisely to: 1. Assign `Ctrl-w` to an extension shortcut that does absolutely nothing 2. Assign a hotkey to close the current tab (I like to use `Alt-w` to mimic Mac OS's `Cmd+w`) The problem with his extension is that it only works with the currently active tab, and I regularly use `Shift + Click` to highlight a bunch of tabs, so that I can close them all at once. His plugin didn't support multiple highlighted tabs, so I created my own. # Usage To use this plugin as it's intended, you have to set up the keyboard shortcuts after installing it. Go to `chrome://extensions/shortcuts` and set the following shortcuts: 1. Assign `Do absolutely nothing` to `Ctrl-w` 2. Assign `Close highlighted tabs` to `Alt-w` or any other key combination of choice This way, `Ctrl-w` will no longer close the current tab by mistake when editing it, and you will be able to use `Alt-w` to close either the current of all highlighted tabs.
