The behavior is that the window splits and the buffer I was currently editing keeps the focus, so to close the other informational buffer I have to either use C-x C-b or switch to the buffer and kill it. Is there a smarter way to close such buffer (and only it) while keep the focus on the editing one? Something like "close the last opened buffer" could work. Thanks, Luca
