# Mac shortcuts: windows, apps and your Terminal

Close one window by name, quit apps, open a file in the app you name, and run the Terminal commands you saved, from one sentence.

## [Quit apps and close windows by name](https://whizra.com/close-windows-mac)
- close this window
- close the file-bar ghostty window
- quit everything except ghostty and vlc

Closes like the red button and quits like ⌘Q, so apps still ask to save; force quit only after "force" and a second Enter. Several matches show a ticked list first. Finder and Whizra are never quit.

## [Open and play files in a named app](https://whizra.com/open-with-mac)
- play episode 11 in vlc with subtitles
- open the latest pdf in chrome
- open my last download in textedit

Opens the file in that app; with "subtitles" in VLC it finds the matching episode's subtitle and loads it.

## Your Terminal shortcuts
- "open ghostty here", "claude dsp in file-bar", "create senuri folder in documents and open ghostty in that path with claude dsp".
- Runs only commands you saved in Settings, word for word; it never makes up a command.
- Ghostty and Terminal get the command; iTerm and Warp open the folder only.
- Two folders with the same name → it asks which.

## Siri and the Shortcuts app
- Shortcuts actions: "Do a File Job" (a sentence + optional files) and "Find Files" (lists only). Tested in the Shortcuts app.
- Anything unclear is left in the bar to finish.
