Mine is 0.8.4.CVS.20020427-(2353).

Yup, and that's how it works, too. In my Irssi, at least; just tested
it. Created a query with a person, switched to some other window and
typed '/window goto <nick>' and Irssi goes straight to that query
window.

    Ref Name                 Active item     Server          Level

Works fine. I'd suggest upgrading to the most recent CVS version, and
try if it works, because I don't have any idea whatsoever why this
feature doesn't work in your Irssi. I'd remember reading from some
FAQ, that "Before you complaing about a bug, try upgrading to the
most recent version", or something to that matter. :-)

So, fetch the the CVS sources and compile yourself a brand new Irssi
and let us know if it's still not functioning. Weird problem, because
it works fine here. OTOH, I haven't even used '/window' very much,
as I've bound all the windows I need to M-<number>. Anyway, try the
newest sources and see if it starts to work. Otherwise, I have no
ideas nor any clue why this is so. Good luck!
