Windowitem

Irssi::Windowitem

The meaning of "window" should be pretty clear, but "window item" is something I couldn't really figure out a better name for :) They're simply something that's inside a window, a channel or a query usually. Windows can have multiple items inside them. It's possible to create non-channel/query window items too, currently the third possible window item is created by /EXEC -interactive.

In scripts, I think you can quite safely assume that the window item is query or channel if the script is intended to be run in one of them. Stupid users won't probably have other window items, and smart users know where to run the script, or at least later figure out why it didn't work :)
