select windows

Hi,

Is there is a way to write a program to select and switch between
windows? For instance, if I have three windows: Firefox, Thunderbird,
and emacs, can I run a program to bring up the desired windows, instead
of click on the windows use mouse.

Thanks,

Du

KDE's window manager can do this (and it is useful, you're right). I
suspect most other window managers will offer it as an option, too.
