Description djungowski 2009-04-30 10:16:25 UTC 
It sometimes happens, that I accidentally close the wrong file. A "Undo close tab/file" function would be really helpful

Does not File -> Open Recent File help in this situation?
Comment 3 holub 2009-12-02 02:01:54 UTC 
"File > Open Recent File" - it's OK for file, but
is too long way to reopen closed tabs and it's not intuitive operation for tabs
Comment 4 lepe 2010-07-02 02:58:17 UTC 
I agree. The most natural way would be to right-click on any other tab and show something like:

...
Save Document
Clone Document
--------------
Undo Close Document
Closed Document List > MathTest.java
--------------         HelloWorld.java
...

Similar to Firefox.
