`icicle-select-window':

Select window by its name.
With no prefix arg, candidate windows are those of the selected frame.
With a prefix arg, windows of all visible frames are candidates.

A window name is the name of its displayed buffer, but suffixed as
needed by [NUMBER], to make the name unique.  For example, if you have
two windows showing buffer *Help*, one of the windows will be called
`*Help*[2]' for use with this command.

By default, `C-x o' does this in Icicles:

No prefix arg - almost same as vanilla Emacs:
  If multiple windows in frame, then `other-window'; else `other-frame'

`C-0 C-x o' - If multiple windows in frame, `icicle-select-window';
  else `icicle-select-frame' (analog to window)

`C-u C-x o' - Like `C-o C-x o', but windows in all frames are candidates.
