Thanks; that's exactly what I was hunting.  I've figured out why
I couldn't find it in the help.  I'd done the following two
searches that didn't turn up any hits in windows.txt::

  :helpgrep winid
  :helpgrep window.id

I hadn't realized that :helpgrep doesn't pay attention to
'ignorecase', which I've set in my .vimrc.  I've since learned
from the help on :helpgrep that I should have been using ``\c``
to get case-ignoring behavior like this::

  :helpgrep \cwindow.id

That finds the sole hit for "window ID" in windows.txt.

Thanks again,
Michael Henry
