Matching windows and tabs
----------------------------
Many remote control operations operate on windows or tabs. To select these,
the :code:`--match` option is often used. This allows matching using various

expressions of the form :code:`field:query`. Where field is the field against
which to match and query is the expression to match. They can be further

title:"My special window" or id:43
title:bash and env:USER=kovid
not id:1
(id:2 or id:3) and title:something
