You can use Ctrl-W if you enable "Keyboard shortcuts in menus" (or whatever
the english string) in Edit/Preferences/General but then you may lose some
emacs keybindings.
Otherwise, you can get hold of the drracket-frame from a custom keybinding,
by first getting the editor from the callback argument, calling (send
editor get-top-level-window) to get the frame, then close the tab (only
partially tested):
(keybinding
"c:s:w"
(λ (ed evt)
(when (is-a? ed text:basic<%>)
(define fr (send ed get-top-level-window))
(when fr (send fr close-current-tab)))))
Example partly taken from here:
