[HOWTO] Safari - Quick Close the tab

This might be obvious but did not see it here doing a search on the howto forum. Was also inspired by Bob's close all tabs tip, very cleaver.

The Tip:
command + w = close one tab at a time in a window, not so fast or you close out that last window, works faster for me than aiming the cursor at the x to close the tab.

On Panther, sometimes if u hit CMD + W only once on a safari window with many opened tabs, it closes the entire window.

GRRRRRRRRR

Cmd - shift - w closes the window (all the tabs in it), cmd - w just the tab. I have had n o problems with that on panther.

DeltaMac will become famous soon enough
Also, a right-click on any tab allows you to close that tab (or all other tabs) from the contextual menu

Command-Option-W closes all tabs except the one you're currently in
