This is present in my Ruby wmiirc posted a while ago:

# Shows the client which has the given ID.
def showClient aClientId
  read('/tags').split.each do |view|
    read("/#{view}").split.grep(/^\d+$/).each do |column|
      read("/#{view}/#{column}").split.grep(/^\d+$/).each do|client|
        if read("/#{view}/#{column}/#{client}/index") == aClientId
          showView view
          write '/view/ctl', "select #{column}"
          write "/view/sel/ctl", "select #{client}"
          return
        end
      end
    end
  end
end
