It'd be nice to have some user-definable ctrl-keys to move between worlds. Something like... (and yes, I know ctrl-f is used already)

ctrl-f=to active or next window (i.e. the next forward window with activity in it)
ctrl-g=to active or prev window (same thing, but going backwards... although they could both key on the same activity-queue)...

You can do this now in a number of ways:


  • Ctrl+Tab switches between windows
  • Ctrl+1 goes to world 1, Ctrl+2 goes to world 2 and so on.
  • You could use the "macro" key definitions to call an alias, the alias could call a script, and the script could activate a world (using world.activate). Thus you could make, say, F5 activate a particular world
  • Just make an alias to do a similar thing, so if you type (eg. "2") it would go to world 2.
  • Make an alias (or macro) that would do a world.getworldlist, and then by working through that list, you could make it go to the next or previous world.
