I'm reiterating the question from this question on purpose. I don't have the reputation to write a comment, sorry!

I found a keyboard shortcut for killing all Terminal windows and it prompts me to confirm that I want to close if Vim or some other program is open! Unfortunately, I don't know which keys I press; it happened accidentally.

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.

This question has been asked in one form or another before, including here. What is the actual keyboard shortcut?

Adding to the comment by Sourav Ghosh,

Some more helpful terminal shortcuts:

  • Ctrl+Shift+Q to kill all
  • Ctrl+Shift+W to kill one
  • Ctrl+Shift+N to make a new terminal pointing at the same directory
  • Ctrl+Shift+T to make a new terminal in a tab pointing at the same directory

  • Ctrl + Shift + Q only killed one terminal for me
