windows

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: window-or-screen &key owned-p states

This function returns a list of the child windows or the owned windows of either a window or the screen.

window-or-screen is the window or screen whose child or owned windows are to be found. (The screen is the value returned by (screen *system). See screen and *system*.

owned-p specifies whether to return child or owned windows. If nil (the default), child windows are returned, otherwise owned windows are returned.

states specifies that only windows that are currently in certain states are to be returned. If nil (the default), then windows in all states are returned. Otherwise states may be a list of some combination of the symbols :normal, :shrunk,:icon, and :maximized, in which case only windows that are currently in those states are returned. See state.

Note that if the specified window is a frame-with-single-child window, then its frame-child pane will be included in the returned list, even though it is sometimes considered to be logically a part of the frame window.
