Unlike task switchers integrated in most simple window managers (WM) or dmenu-like switchers, alttab features visual interface and convenient tactile behaviour: press modifier (Alt) - multiple switch with a key (Tab) - release modifier. Also, it's lightweight and depends only on basic X11 libs, conforming to the usage of lightweight WM.
git clone https://github.com/sagb/alttab.git
cd alttab
./configure && sudo make install
See INSTALL.md for details, doc/wm-setup.md for window manager settings, doc/mobile.md for usage on mobile devices.
Usually it should run fully functional without any argument: alttab
.
no-wm: use X11 without a window manager
