Awesome WM: Move window from one screen to another [closed]

How can I program the rc.lua file to enable a keyboard shortcut to move a window from one tag on one screen to a tag that is on a different screen? I know the modkey + shift + [tag number] shortcut, but that moves the window only to a different tag on the same screen.

For example: I want to move a window from the first tag on screen one to the third tag on screen 2 (or at least to the active tag on screen 2).

I came here expecting an answer for this question. I don't know why was closed, but in any case, in awesome 3.5 I found the answer inspecting the rc.lua file: modkey+O (awful.key({modkey, }, "o", awful.client.movetoscreen)).Canvas

now it is Alt+Shift+n where n is the number of the tag/desktop. Ex alt+shift+5 moves current focused window to desktop 5.Archiplasm
