Session.SelectWindow
SelectWindow makes one winlink current in the receiver session and returns that freshly materialized session-specific Window. WindowID is combined with the receiver SessionID, because a WindowID alone does not distinguish linked views. The selection is session-scoped; it does not promise focus for clients attached to other sessions.
