Skippy

Skippy is a full screen pager for X11, not entirely unlike expocity and Apple's Expose. It arranges snapshots of all windows on the current desktop, allowing you to easily switch between applications. It doesn't require a specific window manager, but requires NetWM or GNOME WM specs compliance to work.

  • Rrelease-after

Changes: Several segmentation faults were fixed. Support was added for window managers that still use the GNOME WM Spec (most notably, WindowMaker when compiled with GNOME support). Some pretty serious logic errors were fixed. The root pixmap is now properly tiled if it's smaller than the screen size.
