Hi, Ive tried both searches and cant seem 2 find any hints, but does anyone know of a way to kill all open tasks instantly? easily! I always end up with 20 odd conversation windows and it bugs be havin 2 click them 1 by 1 to shut in the task switcher. I am a text addict!

I think it is a good idea as well.

Interesting idea that hopefully a developer will implement.

doesn't the optimizeN900 script kill all running tasks?

modified-hildon-desktop has a dbus call to close a specific window. With that it should be easy to write a script to close all windows. You can then call this script with some key combination, or using a desktop widget.

I got queen bee running with some nice shortcuts, can anyone write a script I could use with that?

And btw it wasnt an idea, it was a question I thought someone must have had this sorted by now. its been bugging me long time.

And @ rolan900d I dont want to kill all running processes inc system ones. Just the open windows in the task switcher, or even just the conversation related task windows would be better!

Anyone with the know how feeling in the mood to post a script??

actually it works perfect for me already...about once a day.

then I pull out the battery, and reboot.

It might also be possible to use wmctrl for that.
wmctrl -l lists all windows, including their titles, and wmctrl -c closes a window.

Something similar to how in xp 5 firefox windows are grouped together on the taskbar, and the option to close group would be handy..
