When the hook is called, the editor will automatically change to the window where the event occured. The return value of the hook is used to dictate whether or not hook handled the event or whether the editor should switch back to the window prior to the event. Specifically, the return value is interpreted as follows:
-1 Event not handled, pass to default hook.
0 Event handled, return active window prior to event
1 Event handled, stay in current window.
