I have opened another window in eclipse by mistake using Window->New Window...
I don't find where to close it.
do you know how?
EDIT:
I am using linux FVWM so I don't have the close button.
Thanks.

are you serious? There's a close button on it like normal window, why don't use that? – Nishant Jan 27 '11 at 05:02

1@Nishant, this is also proving to be problematic when using xming. – j.raymond Jul 10 '15 at 15:57

By default it has a Close button mark with [X] at top. By clicking on it or pressing ALT + F4 you can close it Or you can also exit it from File menu. File-->Exit. But this option will exit all the windows of eclipse means all eclipse instance will be closed. So better if you go with First option.
Hope this helps.
Edit:
To close a window you could use somthing like this in linux fvmw:
AddToFunc close_window
+ I ThisWindow ($0) Close
Key F11 W SCM close_window
This would close the current focused window when you hit ALT-CTRL-SHIFT-F11.
Also take a look at this: Window options in FVWM

Two routes I know of :
- (CTRL + F6) to list all open windows and navigate between them
- Select the 'offender'
- (CTRL + F4) to close it.
or
- (CTRL + SHIFT + F4) to close all the windows

I use awesome-wm, and i have the same problem. I solve it using the shortcut to close current window. On awesome-wm it's Mod4-Shift-c.
Hope that help.
