next-window

Arguments: window &key owned-p states for-focus

If owned-p is nil (the default), returns the window that comes just after the specified window in the front-to-back occlusion order of the child windows of the parent window of the specified window, if any, and otherwise returns nil.

If owned-p is true, returns the window that comes just after the specified window in the front-to-back occlusion order of the non-child owned windows of the owner window of the specified window, if any, and otherwise returns nil.

If states is non-nil, then it should be a list of window state symbols, and windows whose state is not in this list are skipped. If nil (the default), then these windows are not skipped. Valid symbols for this list are :normal, :shrunk, :icon, and :maximized. See state.

If for-focus is true, then windows whose events are currently disabled (see enable-events) are skipped, and "static" control windows are skipped as well. ("Static" control windows include static-text-pane, static-picture-pane, and group-box-pane.) If nil (the default), then these windows are not skipped. Such windows do not handle any keyboard events, so passing this argument as true may be useful for finding a window to move the keyboard focus to by calling set-focus.
