Full description
Window Commander provides a minor mode for switching to windows or performing actions on them using IDs assigned to them automatically. Usage: Enable `wincom-mode': (wincom-mode) For use-package users: (use-package window-commander :config (wincom-mode)) When `wincom-mode' is active: - A window ID is displayed using a mode line lighter and/or a display function (see `wincom-display-lighter'). - Window IDs are assigned to all windows on all frames except for the minibuffer (by default, see `wincom-scope'). - `other-window' (C-x o by default) is remapped to `wincom-select'. C-x o ID switches focus to the window which corresponds to ID. C-x o 0 ID deletes the window which corresponds to ID. C-x o 1 ID makes the window which corresponds to ID the sole window of its frame. C-x o 2 ID splits the window which corresponds to ID from below. C-x o 3 ID splits the window which corresponds to ID from the right. C-x 0 4 ID displays the buffer of the next command in the window which corresponds to ID. C-x 0 t ID swaps the states of the current window and the window which corresponds to ID. C-x o m switches focus to the minibuffer if it's active. More commands can be added through `wincom-command-map': (define-key wincom-command-map (kbd "z") #'my-command) You can customize Window Commander further using the customize interface: M-x customize-group RET window-commander RET For more information see info node `(window-commander)'.

News
Window Commander NEWS -- history of user-visible changes. -*- mode: outline -*-
See the end of the file for an explanation of the versioning scheme.
* 3.0.2
** Fix info manual.
* 3.0.1
** Fix ELPA build.
* 3.0
** Rename to Window Commander.
** Remove functions and vars obsoleted in version 2.x.
** Accept a ':minibuffer' keyword argument for 'wincom-define-window-command'
instead of using a positional argument.
* 2.3
** Rework window commands
A new macro has been added ('swsw-define-window-command') which
greatly simplifies the creation of window commands; existing commands
now use it and 5 new window commands have been added:
'swsw-delete-other', 'swsw-split-window-below' and
'swsw-split-window-right', which correspond to the built-in commands,
'swsw-selected-window-prefix', which displays the buffer of the next
command in the selected window (Emacs 28+), and 'swsw-swap' which
swaps the state of the current window and the selected window.
* 2.2
** Rework display functions
'swsw-display-function' has been replaced by 'swsw-display-lighter',
display functions should now be added to 'swsw-mode-hook'.
For backwards compatibility, 'swsw-display-function' has been
redefined as an obsolete alias of 'swsw-display-lighter', and
'swsw-mode' currently still handles cases where the value of
'swsw-display-lighter' is a function.
Display functions which are added to 'swsw-mode-hook' shouldn't
require any arguments.
* 2.1.1
** Indicate that some functions are for interactive use only.
* 2.1
** Bump required Emacs version to 27.1.
** Update window information when switching frames.
This fixes several issues when 'swsw-scope' isn't set to t.
** Make 'swsw-select' and 'swsw-delete' respect 'swsw-scope'.
Previously, 'swsw-select' and 'swsw-delete' would not select/delete
the only other window if it was on a different frame and 'swsw-scope'
allowed tracking it.
** Remap 'other-window' to 'swsw-select' when 'swsw-mode' is active.
By default this changes nothing since the default binding for
'other-window' is 'C-x o'.
This change has been made to add (simple) out-of-the-box compatibility
with alternative key binding sets or different Emacs distributions
(provided they bind 'other-window').
* 2.0.2
** No user visible changes.
* 2.0.1
** Add a link to the info node in the customization buffer.
** Add version information to customizable variables.
** Fix 'swsw-delete' when the only other tracked window is the minibuffer.
* 2.0
** Add support for custom window management commands.
Binding a command to a key in 'swsw-command-map' allows you to call that
command instead of selecting an ID.
Currently three such commands are defined: 'swsw-select' (o),
'swsw-select-minibuffer' (m), 'swsw-delete' (0).
** Breaking changes
*** 'swsw-minibuffer-id' is no longer defined or used anywhere, instead
providing the same functionality through 'swsw-select-minibuffer'.
*** 'swsw-select' no longer accepts a window ID as an optional argument.
* 1.1.2
** Apply customization options immediately.
Customizing 'swsw-id-chars' and 'swsw-scope' and applying those changes now
causes all window IDs to update.
** Construct IDs without pre-computing all possible IDs.
This should hopefully help performance when dealing with a very large
number of windows.
** Fix the calculation of the ID length.
Previously the ID length reported was much bigger than it needed to
be.
** Prevent setting the minibuffer ID to a character which can be used to
construct a regular ID, and vice versa.
** Fix window selection occurring when entering an invalid ID.
* 1.1.1
** Bump required Emacs version to 26.1.
** Add missing license information in several places.
The info node was missing license information, and created archives were missing
the LICENSE file.
** Update the homepage of the package to dsemy.com/software/swsw.
** Update documentation strings.
Documentation strings for several functions and variables have been updated to
be more clear and to better comply with Emacs' conventions.
