Description

  • I am on the latest Hyper.app version
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
  • Mac OS X El Capitan:
  • Hyper.app 2.0.0:
  • Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js:
  • Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere):
  • The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:

Issue

window:reloadFull": "command+shift+r" i find myself constantly doing this to reload the browser until unconsciously do it on Hyper and kills all my processes and must restart again.

A popup warning "Do you want to do a full reload" would be good to prevent this.

Research direction

Start by tracing the window:reloadFull command and its command+shift+r shortcut in Hyper.app. Confirm the current full-reload behavior, then add the requested warning so the reload requires confirmation and ongoing processes are not lost unintentionally.
