Hi fellow ion users,

After a few improvements to the goto_or_run ion script I've made it
available on the ion wiki pages [1].

Features include:

- focus or run application with single hotkey

- loop focus on application windows forward/backward
  if windows found

- launch application if no window found

- remembers last focused application window
  when returning from another application

- identify application client windows by
  * class
  * instance
  * title

- example key binding helper function to assign three keys:
  * loop focus forward or launch application
  * loop focus backward or launch application
  * unconditionally launch application

Thanks to Ngea and Etan on the #ion IRC channel for advice and for
spotting out a bug.

Note: I couldn't use Tuomo's script repository [2] without a darcs RPM
for Mandrake (RedHat RPM won't work). I can't compile the source RPM,
(no ghc for Mandrake), and I can't compile ghc's SRPM, since it depends
on ghc itself. Any advice?
