Key Combination to Switch to the Next/Previous Window?

Hi,

Is there a key combination to switch to the next/previous window  
like ⌘` (command-`) and ⇧⌘` (command-shift-`) in Mac OS X? I  
often find myself moving windows out of the way manually with the  
mouse just to get the window below it.

Squeak doesn't include this functionality in the "base image".  I
believe that the KeyBinder package on SqueakMap has support for this (in
addition to giving you the ability to bind other key combinations).

Hi, Daniel,

Use cmd-\ to cycle through Squeak windows in top-to-bottom order.

This will only work if the "desktop" has keyboard focus, which you  
can assure by clicking on open desktop before issuing the first cmd-\.


Cheers,

Thanks, Scott  - I was looking for the same answer myself.  (It is
alt-\ on PC linux)

I notice that it also works for Morphic menus (like the World menu),
but not for flaps and some other objects like TrashCanMorph.

MSWindows (and other platforms) then try KeyBinder.

Which reminds me, is there a way to get a list of windows, including
collapsed ones? (That is, similar to the window menu in most X window
managers.)

Shift click on the "world".

<ShamelessPlug>Also if you want something more like a task bar have a
look at the Taskbar package:

Perfect - thanks!

Does anyone know if the X team at MIT had a working Smalltalk in their
lab?  It is starting to look that way?

Perhaps I can get away with asking if my other X favourites - sloppy
focus and multiple desktops - are in Squeak?

Quite right to be shameless.  It looks great and should be popular ...
except here (sorry,  I may be the only computer user in the 21st
century who doesn't appreciate taskbars.)

Desktops are called "Projects" in Squeak. Create a new one from the  
"open" menu. Jump between projects using the top entries in the world  
menu. I don't think there are keybindings for fast project switching,  
though.
