Disable middle click tab close in LX Terminal?

[jsedwards]

Is there any way to disable middle clicking on a tab in LX Terminal and having it close the tab? Or better yet have it *ALWAYS* confirm before closing a tab?

I have recently become disabled and can no longer use my right hand to operate the mouse. And the fingers on my left hand are not very accurate either and sometimes they hit the wrong button accidentally. Tonight I accidentally middle clicked on a tab instead of left clicked and the tab closed. Thankfully this time I did not lose my bash history, but that has happened in the past. It would be most helpful if I could disable that "feature".

Thanks,
-Scott

Yes, it's possible!

edit /home/user/.config/Terminal/terminalrc
change MiscTabCloseMiddleClick=TRUE
to MiscTabCloseMiddleClick=FALSE

edit /home/user/.config/Terminal/terminalrc
change MiscTabCloseMiddleClick=TRUE
to MiscTabCloseMiddleClick=FALSE

In Lubuntu, the path is:

Code: Select all

.config/lxterminal

And there is one file and this is the contents:

File name= lxterminal.conf

Code: Select all

I decided to send this Topic/Thread to Lubuntu Team via Mailing List and I got a reply from the developers:

Julien Lavergne:
"As far as I know, this feature doesn't exist. You can report a feature request on LXDE bug tracker : http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_i ... tid=894872
Lxterminal maintainer is active, so he may be able to add it
