David, Generally when I get a lot of workspaces and frames like that, I start naming them based on what information is on each of them. I then jump to them by name. There is another method that might extend that. When I used to use sawfish, someone sent me a script where you could hit a hotkey and then start typing the window title. It would give a list of all possible titles, and keep narrowing them down the more you typed, in an incremental search fashion. You could then either type the number that was next to the window to go to it, or wait until the one you wanted was highlighted and hit enter. It might be interesting to do something like this with ion. You could probably do it with tab completion, that that doesn't have the same visual feedback and isn't as quick. -- Zachary P.
