The window has not disappeared but rather is being obscured by some other
window. In OS X, windows can overlap between applications. In pre-Mac OS X,
windows did not overlap between applications. In Windows, windows do
not overlap but in X-Windows, they do.
In Stata for Macintosh, the Command window will automatically jump to the
front if you start typing so it's not necessary to use the keyboard shortcut.
Perhaps we'll put in a preference for the Command window (and Results window)
to move to the front when Stata is moved to the front.
