Description
Skippy is what is best described as a full-screen task-switcher for X11. It tries to provide an alternative when taskbars or regular task-switchers aren't the most efficient way of switching tasks (like when you have a lot of applications open). When activated (currently only through a hotkey), it will arrange and scale snapshots of all windows on the current desktop and it'll let you pick a window using a mouse or a keyboard.
It is pretty similar to a tool made by Apple, called Expose - http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/expose/
Skippy depends on a NetWM compliant window-manager.
