With Polymorph loaded this should work with the window having focus.
Due to a little bug (miscategorised method) you'll need to load the lastest version from SqueakSource until Damien updates the dev images. (Polymorph-Widgets-gvc.54).

      Yes,  this already exists.  On OS X it's Cmd-W, so I assume it would be Alt-W on Windows (maybe Ctrl-W?).

      The trick is that the desktop needs to have the keyboard focus, not a window.  It won't work if you're typing in a window.  First, click on the desktop, then use the key combo.  This is a bit inconvenient for closing a single window, but it works well if you want to clean up a bunch of windows.


    And horribly the same short-cut means "Find a message names" when the screen has focus.  I've lost a few windows that way :(  I don't quite understand when magic-W means close window and when it means Find message names.

  Oops, I wasn't very precise.  I meant Cmd-w (lower-case "w").  The shortcut that Eliot is referring to uses an upper-case "W".

        Something like Ctrl + W or similar. It think this would be a really useful shortcut (at least for me haha).

        Thanks in advance.
