Find window by name

windows

// what it does

Prefix + `f` runs find-window, prompting for a pattern and searching across window names, titles, and visible pane content, then listing matches to pick from. Good for locating a window when you remember text on its screen rather than its number.

// shortcut

Ctrl + bf

// gotcha

Because it also matches visible pane content (pattern match by default; `-r` for regex), a search can surface windows you didn't expect just because the string appears in their on-screen output.
