Hi,
I propose these two functions to switch among clients. These functions are
similar to zoom function but they eliminate the dead loop between first
and second clients in the case of repetitive zoom calls. next_client
cycles the clients in the counterclockwise direction and prev_client vice
versa. Code blocks with the corresponding code files are given below. I
would like to thank Engin Tola for his suggestions.
