In PyCharm, what is the keyboard shortcut (or menu command so I can define my own shortcut) to switch between windows in split screen?
To rephrase, when I can see two files on the screen, one in the left pane and the other in the right, how do I move the cursor from the left pane to the right pane without using the mouse?
In emacs, this would be "c-x o", but PyCharm interprets that as switching between tabs.

For those familiar with vim there is the IdeaVim extension for pycharm
and you can use vim key mapping:
for splitting a window:
ctrl + w + n # horizontally
ctrl + w + v # verically
for switching between splitted windows:
ctrl + w + [arrow]
ctrl-w + w
ctrl-w + W
switching by a number:
[number] + ctrl-w + w

In Linux it can be achieved through the main menu:
Window -> Editor Tabs -> Goto Next Splitter
Unfortunately, there is no predefined shortcut for this operation. However, you can create your custom shortcut easy:
Settings -> Keymap

This option is called Goto Next Splitter
in Pycharm. In version 2018.3
(MacOS Mojave) the shortcut is Option + Tab
, but you can edit it easily:
Preferences
(cmd + ,)
-> Keymap -> Goto Next Splitter.
