     GK                        Group window
     UK    [win_number]        User window

     VK    [win_number]        Virtual window
     ZK                        Real memory window
     LK                        LDEV window
     TXK   [win_number]        Text window

This command removes a window from the screen.  It does this by setting
the length of a window to zero lines, which effectively makes it
disappear.  The command permanently deallocates text, user, and virtual
windows.  (Attempts to set the lines to a value greater than zero for
these window results in an error since the window no longer exists.)  If
the window is a text window, this command closes the file.

Parameters 

 win_number      The window number for a specific user window (U), text
                 window (TX), or virtual window (V). If win_number is
                 omitted, then the current window is used.  The current
                 user window is marked by an asterisk, and the current
                 virtual and text windows are marked in inverse video.

Examples 

     %cmdebug > PK 

Kill the (current mode) program window.

     %cmdebug > PL 6 

Bring back the program window.  Remember, killing a window sets its
length to zero.

     %cmdebug > VK 3 

Deallocate virtual window number 3.  This window cannot be brought back
by changing the window length as in the above example.  Once a virtual
window is killed, it is gone until a new VW command is used to create a
new one.

Limitations, Restrictions 

none
