Does anyone know what the shortcut (if it exists) to close an active pane in iterm.

I am using the beta version 2.9 and have tried configuring it in preferences to no avail.

This is what I have so far:

Shift + cmd + d = split pane (horizontally)
cmd + d = split pane (vertically)

Close pane = ??

The answer is YES.
There is a shortcut CMD⌘ + w to close pane in iterm2.

and Shift + CMD⌘ + w closes the active window with all panes and tabs.
