How do I close all but the current buffer in Emacs? Similar to "Close other tabs" feature in modern web browsers?

回答1:
For a more manual approach, you can list all buffers with C-x C-b, mark buffers in the list for deletion with d, and then use x to remove them.
I also recommend replacing list-buffers with the more advanced ibuffer: (global-set-key (kbd "C-x C-b") 'ibuffer)
. The above will work with ibuffer, but you could also do this:
m (mark the buffer you want to keep)
t (toggle marks)
D (kill all marked buffers)
I also use this snippet from the Emacs Wiki, which would further streamline this manual approach:
;; Ensure ibuffer opens with point at the current buffer's entry.
(defadvice ibuffer
(around ibuffer-point-to-most-recent) ()
"Open ibuffer with cursor pointed to most recent buffer name."
(let ((recent-buffer-name (buffer-name)))
ad-do-it
(ibuffer-jump-to-buffer recent-buffer-name)))
(ad-activate 'ibuffer)

From EmacsWiki: Killing Buffers:
(defun kill-other-buffers ()
"Kill all other buffers."
(interactive)
(mapc 'kill-buffer
(delq (current-buffer)
(remove-if-not 'buffer-file-name (buffer-list)))))
Edit: updated with feedback from Gilles

There isn't a way directly in emacs to do this.
You could write a function to do this. The following will close all the buffers:
(defun close-all-buffers () (interactive) (mapc 'kill-buffer (buffer-list)))

There is a built in command m-x kill-some-buffers
(I'm using 24.3.50) In my nextstep gui (not tried in a terminal but sure it's similar) you can then approve which buffers to kill.
回答5:
(defun only-current-buffer ()
(interactive)
(let ((tobe-killed (cdr (buffer-list (current-buffer)))))
(while tobe-killed
(kill-buffer (car tobe-killed))
(setq tobe-killed (cdr tobe-killed)))))
It works as you expected.
And after reading @Starkey's answer, I think this will be better:
(defun only-current-buffer ()
(interactive)
(mapc 'kill-buffer (cdr (buffer-list (current-buffer)))))
(buffer-list (current-buffer)) will return a list that contains all the existing buffers, with the current buffer at the head of the list.
This is my first answer on StackOverflow. Hope it helps :)

I found this solution to be the simplest one. This deletes every buffer except the current one. You have to add this code to your .emacs
file
(defun kill-other-buffers ()
"Kill all other buffers."
(interactive)
(mapc 'kill-buffer (delq (current-buffer) (buffer-list))))
Of course, then you use it with M-x kill-other-buffers
RET or you paste the following code in the .emacs
file too and then just press C-xC-b
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x C-b") 'kill-other-buffers)

I've use crux-kill-other-buffers for some months.
But I want dired buffers get deleted too. @Euge's and @wenjun.yan's answers solve this. But it will delete special buffers (e.g *git-credential-cache--daemon*, *scratch*, helm operation, and etc). So I came up with this (current) solution.
(defun aza-kill-other-buffers ()
"Kill all buffers but current buffer and special buffers"
(interactive)
(dolist (buffer (delq (current-buffer) (buffer-list)))
(let ((name (buffer-name buffer)))
(when (and name (not (string-equal name ""))
(/= (aref name 0) ?\s)
(string-match "^[^\*]" name))
(funcall 'kill-buffer buffer)))))
Inspired from kill-matching-buffers. You can add more condition
on other buffer-name to exclude, if you want to.
Hope it helps :)

You can like this one as well - kill all buffers except current one, *Messages* and *scratch* (which are handy to have, I call them "toolkit"), close redundant windows as well, living you which one window which current buffer.
(defun my/kill-all-buffers-except-toolbox ()
"Kill all buffers except current one and toolkit (*Messages*, *scratch*). Close other windows."
(interactive)
(mapc 'kill-buffer (remove-if
(lambda (x)
(or
(string-equal (buffer-name) (buffer-name x))
(string-equal "*Messages*" (buffer-name x))
(string-equal "*scratch*" (buffer-name x))))
(buffer-list)))
(delete-other-windows))

This is what you want:
C-x 1
