switching between tabs
 
Is there a quick way to switch between say 2 different windows, if you have 2 open in zMUD? ie to make the curser's attention switch between the two input lines of the two windows? I often am connected to more than one mud at a time, with 2 windows open, and it would be handy if i could switch windows without having to use the mouse.

I have it arranged like this:

|___________ ____________|
|_X_________ |_Y_________ |

And I wish to switch curser focus from X to Y and Vice-Versa

if you want it to switch on a specific scripted event, you can use either the #WINDOW command or the "Windowname:" shortcut:

#WINDOW X -- will set focus to the window if X is already opened, otherwise will open window and apply focus
X: -- sets focus to an already-opened window named X (may have to actually send some info to get this to work)

ctrl-n is the default to tab through windows I think
