** Description changed:
- open up a bunch of terminal windows or any other application, focus on
- one of them and press alt+`` two backticks (key above tab) the first one
- will take you to the last window you had focus on, the second one brings
- you back to the one you were on before pressing anything, rather than
- the expected second-to-last window, so alt+`` is a null operation.
+ open up 3 or more terminal windows or any other application, focus on
+ one of them and press alt+grave (key above tab).
