Synopsis:
   window new

Description:
   This creates a new split (visible) window.  This is done by splitting one
   of the current visible windows in half and giving the other half of its 
   space to the new window.  The SET ALWAYS_SPLIT_BIGGEST variable controls
   whether the biggest window (ON) or the current window (OFF) is split to
   make room for the new window.

   New windows usually initialize with zero values except for:
       * The current window's server
       * SET NOTIFY_LEVEL
       * SET SCROLLBACK
       * SET HOLD_SLIDER
       * SET LASTLOG_LEVEL
       * SET LASTLOG,
   WINDOW LEVEL is set to NONE, and ON WINDOW_CREATE is hooked with the new
   window's refnum.

   Window refnums are initialy set to the lowest refnum greater than 0 that 
   is not in use.  You can change a window's refnum with WINDOW NUMBER as 
   long as that window does not have any channels.

See Also:
   set(4) always_split_biggest, hold_mode, notify_level; window(4) create,
   delete, kill

History:
   This operation was already present in ircII2.1.5g.
