Select ( ctx : context.Context ) → (Window, error) method [source] ¶ method [source] ¶ Select

Select makes the receiver's exact winlink current in its session. It does not promise focus for clients attached to other sessions. Select returns a canonical freshly materialized Window , which may use another linked session for the same WindowID. If the command succeeds but refresh fails, it returns the receiver with that error. A transport or context error can be delivery-ambiguous; no rollback is attempted.
