EmacsWiki: Switch Window (original) (raw)
Switch Window provides a way to switch between Emacs Windows visually. Depending on how you configure it, it will show numbers or letters in each open Window and so you simply press a single key to switch to that window. This is much easier than the default Emacs command keybinding C-x o.
It also provides commands that make it easier to resize Windows than the Emacs defaults.
Switch Window used to be hosted in the elisp area, but has since moved to GitHub.
There is also a small section about Switch Window on the author's homepage.
See also: Ace Window – a similar Emacs extension which also allows you to quickly switch to and operate on windows by pressing a single or a few characters
