Hi,
Is there a key combination to switch to the next/previous window like ⌘` (command-`) and ⇧⌘` (command-shift-`) in Mac OS X? I often find myself moving windows out of the way manually with the mouse just to get the window below it.

Squeak doesn't include this functionality in the "base image". I believe that the KeyBinder package on SqueakMap has support for this (in addition to giving you the ability to bind other key combinations).

Hi, Daniel,
Use cmd-\ to cycle through Squeak windows in top-to-bottom order.
This will only work if the "desktop" has keyboard focus, which you can assure by clicking on open desktop before issuing the first cmd-.
Cheers,

Thanks, Scott - I was looking for the same answer myself. (It is alt-\ on PC linux)
I notice that it also works for Morphic menus (like the World menu), but not for flaps and some other objects like TrashCanMorph.

Unfortunately under 3.7 and 3.8 (and probably 3.9?) this only sends the top window to the back. It doesn't expand collapsed windows although it does cycle through them. If you want something similar to Alt-Tab under MSWindows (and other platforms) then try KeyBinder.

Which reminds me, is there a way to get a list of windows, including collapsed ones? (That is, similar to the window menu in most X window managers.)

Shift click on the "world".
<ShamelessPlug>Also if you want something more like a task bar have a look at the Taskbar package:

Perfect - thanks!
Does anyone know if the X team at MIT had a working Smalltalk in their lab? It is starting to look that way?
Perhaps I can get away with asking if my other X favourites - sloppy focus and multiple desktops - are in Squeak?

Quite right to be shameless. It looks great and should be popular ... except here (sorry, I may be the only computer user in the 21st century who doesn't appreciate taskbars.)

Desktops are called "Projects" in Squeak. Create a new one from the "open" menu. Jump between projects using the top entries in the world menu. I don't think there are keybindings for fast project switching, though.
