Is there a keyboard shortcut to show, pin, hide, & unpin the Search Results window. I normally keep it docked and pinned on the right, Occasionally, I need to unpin it to view more screen. Then show it and pin it again.

Is there a command for this that can be tied to a keyboard shortcut(s)?

I tried hide-tool-window but that did not have any effect.

There is floatToolWindows.e - adds commands to float, dock, pin, unpin many tool windows.
Key mappings are defined at the top of the file.

Not exactly what you are looking for (because you want to pin/unpin), but the built-in commands are toggle-search and activate-search.

For 25.0.2, I added a suite of commands (no default key bindings for them) toggle_*_pinned, similar to the existing toggle_* commands for toggling whether a tool window was visible or not.

Example:  toggle_search_pinned

1) If "Search Results" was not visible, it will make it visible, doing exactly what "toggle_search_results" would do.

2) If "Search Results" is visible and docked, it will unpin it (make it an auto-hidden tool window), along with all other tool windows in it's tab group.

3) If "Search Results" is unpinned (auto-hidden), it will pin it, making it a docked tool window, along with all other tool windows in it's tab group.

4) If "Search Results" is visible and floating, it will unpin it  (make it an auto-hidden tool window).
