For me, the Alt+Tab switch time on the XO is around one second (or less) to the next window. Becomes burdensome only when there are *many* windows to cycle through - and it is rare that I have many open. There was a long discussion about this way back when (I don't have a cite). [For each switch, the OLPC developers wanted indication in the Neighborhood View of the *other* users as to the window (i.e., Activity) in which *this* user now participated.] The developers suggested, when there are many windows open, not using Alt+Tab but instead clicking __in the Frame__ on the icon of the specific window to be switched to. With the availability nowadays of 'Tabs' in Terminal (and in browsers), I'm switching much more often *within* an application than *between* applications. In Terminal, Ctl+Shift+Horizontal_Arrow switches quickly. mikus _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
