if you don't want to write something of your own, then
$ xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW
> _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW(WINDOW): window id # 0x400050
or
$ xdotool getactivewindow
> 4194384
will work, as long as your wm supports and correctly sets _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW
note that xdotool outputs the id as an int,
to get the same with xprop do something like:
$ xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | cut -d# -f2 | xargs printf "%d\n"
> 4194384
some apps work with both formats, others require int
xwininfo can also give you the window id, and with -int it will be in int form.
