i modded my modkey+number behavior as well:
awful.key({ modkey }, "#" .. i + 9,
function ()
local screen = mouse.screen
if tags[screen][i].selected then
return awful.tag.history.restore()
end
if tags[screen][i] then
awful.tag.viewonly(tags[screen][i])
end
end),
so, if you press the exact same number again, you get back to the previous one.
I find it very useful, because sometimes i get on the wrong tag and
want to switch back without losing my tag history.
Or if i just want to have a quick look a a specific tag and get right
back to the one where i've been.
