Normally, a window index number of an cgWindow application. But, the selection
can be a widget identifier, an object reference, or a window title, depending on
which keywords are set. The cgWindow matching the selection is made the "current"
cgWindow and the application is moved forward on the display.
Keywords
object: in, optional, type=boolean
If this keyword is set, the selection is assumed to be an object reference.
title: in, optional, type=boolean
If this keyword is set, the selection is assumed to be a window title. All
matching is done in uppercase characters.
widgetid: in, optional, type=boolean
If this keyword is set, the selection is assumed to be a widget identifier.

IDL> IF tcnt GT 0 THEN cgSet, wids[index]
IDL> cgWindow, 'Oplot', thisData, /AddCmd
