Unable to move between Screens in Emacs

Question

I have two screens, one is empty and the other is Emacs' manual. My cursor is at the empty screen.

All my commands affect the empty screen.

A similar command in Vim is C-w.

How can you switch to the Emacs' manual such that I can roll down the screen by C-v?

Answer 1

Control-x + o (C-x + o), google emacs cheat sheet for help

1. hold Control
2. press X
3. release Control and X
4. press O

Answer 2

Like zaczap said use "C-x o" (control "x" then "o") for moving between "frames" in a single window, or "C-x 5 o" to move between different windows.

By "window" I mean a window manager object with a title bar and decorations and all that, while "frame" means a part of a whole window set off to contain a single buffer.

Other important commnds:

• "C-x 2" to make a new frame in this window or "C-x 5 2" to make a new window
• "C-x 0" to close the current frame or "C-x 5 0" to close the current window
• "C-x 1" to make the current frame expand to use the entire window.
