I open 3 buffers (3 files).
Show only 2 buffers.



enter image description here



As you can see the current buffer is my_buffer_1 because cursor is in this buffer.
I want to kill this current buffer. 



M-x kill-buffer


But Emacs ask me what exactly buffer I want to kill.
enter image description here



I select my_buffer_1 and press Enter. As result buffer is killed.
enter image description here



Is it possible Emacs to not ask me about buffer name and kill default (with cursor) buffer? In my case this is a my_buffer_1.




kill-buffer

          Use the function kill-this-buffer. I basically never want to kill buffers that are not the current buffer, so I rebind C-x k to that function:



          (global-set-key (kbd "C-x k") #'kill-this-buffer)


          (Of course, if you ever do wanted to be prompted for a buffer to kill, you can just run M-x kill-buffer, or since you use Helm, kill it from the buffer switcher.)

This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar.
