Closing an iTerm tab with multiple split panes

iTerm allows you to have multiple split panes open inside the same tab.

How do I close all the panes together and/or the tab housing all of the panes?

The standard close tab shortcut of + W only closes one pane at a time.


One way is to send command to all panes in tab and then send exit to all of them:

+ + i (send keyboard input to sessions in current tab)

+ d (exit)

This closes all sessions and tab.

You may want to surpress warning message ("Warning! Keyboard input will be sent to multiple sessions.") for smoother usage.
