I assume you mean "delete window", not "kill window". "delete" is the
operation performed by clicking the "X" in the top right corner of a
Windows window, the empty box in the top left corner of a mac window,
or doing the thing usually called "delete" or "close" under X. On the
other hand, "kill" forcibly breaks the X connection of a window without
giving the client a chance to close down appropriately. Users almost
never want to do this, so it will not be on the title bar at all.
Possible locations include the context-menu and the Gnome-menu. The
"delete" button seems, at this point, likely to be an "X" icon in the
top left corner of the window.
