Suppose the user is making her way by clicking on buttons that open several windows or palettes. The following function : toOpen [file_String] := FrontEnd`Execute[ NotebookOpen[FrontEnd`FileName[{ParentDirectory, "myApplication"}, file]]] will allow to open several palettes at a time: for example to open at one moment 4 palettes it suffice to put as ButtonFunction the FullForm of toOpen /@ {"palette1", "palette2", "palette3", "palette4"}; This is convenient because it is very simple and does not care on plateform beeing. Neither it cares about the number of windows to open. How could I write a similar simple function to close some of opened windows from just giving their file names, without using any setting as nb =...?
