Mouse-Free Longings: Closing unsaved tab, can't use keyboard on dialog box to select "don't save"

#1

When closing a file and seeing prompt, I don’t want to be forced to move my mouse to click “Don’t save”.
Tab doesn’t work but Enter does(which clicks the default “Save”). Is there any way around this?

Using Mac and Sublime Text 3

Use a plugin.

Self-advertisement:
I have one called NoDialogs, but I am still waiting for Package Control guys to include it.

I believe this is an OS X issue, no?

Least this happened in more apps than ST for me so I did the following.

System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Full keyboard access: All controls

Damn thats sick! Strangely however, it moves the cursor between “don’t save”, “Cancel” and “save”, but pressing enter results in “save” being selected regardless

You have to press space. Intuitive, right?
