Keeps Zotero from closing by accident: the close button and the Ctrl/Command+W, Ctrl+Q, and Alt+F4 shortcuts minimize Zotero instead, with an optional confirmation dialog before exit.

Index categories: Window, tabs, and shortcuts

To install, save the .xpi file and drag it onto the Plugins window in Zotero (Tools → Plugins). In Firefox, right-click the download link and choose Save Link As. A plugin has full access to your Zotero and your computer, and the index does not review its code before listing it, so install only plugins from developers you trust. More about installing
