Window switcher

Installation

sudo apt install wmctrl

Usage

List currently open windows

./list.sh

Switch to a window

./switch.sh WINDOW_NAME

For example, to switch to Chrome:

./switch.sh google-chrome.Google-chrome

If you supply multiple arguments, it will switch to the first window in the list which exists:

# Navigate to chrome if exists, else firefox
./switch.sh google-chrome.Google-chrome Navigator.firefox

Define your own cases

I created the script cases.sh in order to easily define the possible windows which I want to reach by shortcuts. For example, I have set ctrl+1 to ./cases.sh 1.
