Take a look at the file processes.lisp. In it you will find

(defun select-process (creator &optional (launch? t))
  (rlet ((psn :processSerialNumber))
    (if (find-process creator psn)
      (#_setFrontProcess psn)
      (unless (and launch? (launch-creator creator))
        (ed-beep)))))

and all required functions.

You're welcome.
