If we open like 12 jobs at the same time, and they're all in the background, is there anyway to close all of them at the same time? I tried "jobs -x kill", but it didn't work.

Courses Plus Student 26,867 PointsSounds like it's the domain of the kill command, try
kill $(jobs -p)
Let me know if it works.
