Hi, After cycling through many windows, the original window may be obscured by many others, and if you still want to see its contents you end up doing the Alt-Tab-Tab-Tab-Tab-Tab, Alt-Tab, Alt-Tab dance.
This patch adds restacking of windows during cycling. Hold Alt, press Tab and a window will be raised. Press Tab again while still holding Alt and that window will be lowered back before another is raised. Once you release Alt, the original window will be hidden behind no more than one other (the target), assuming it was raised before. What do you think? Vadik. -- Nondeterminism means never having to say you are wrong.
