Quickly Re-Open Recently Used Files


This tip applies to PHPStorm, WebStorm, and likely any other of the Jetbrain's IDEs.

Much like you can press ctrl / cmd + shift + t to re-open a previously closed tab in your browser, you can do something similar in PHPStorm.

In PHPStorm / WebStorm, the command is :

ctrl / cmd + e

I'm really not sure why they went with the e key, but I like to think of it as 'recently', putting the emphasis on the 'lee' sound. Terrible, I know, but it helps me remember the command.
