how to minimize current window with keyboard

[fleamailman]

by now everyone knows
close all windows = winkey + d
open all windows = winkey + d

but what about minimizing and mximmizing just one window
minimizing current window = alt + spacebar + n
maximizing a window = alt + tab

[Pi rules]

Windows key + M also minimizes the current window. Alt+tab switches between windows. Microsoft has a useful PowerToy called Alt-tab here (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx).

pi rules, thanks, note the difference
winkey + m, closes all the windows
shift + winkey + m, opens all the windows
(winkey + m twice, does nothing)

the important thing about this tweak, is simply knowing how to open and close one window as opposed to the whole bunch


alt + spacebar + n, closes one window(the current window)
alt + tab, reopens current window

but if you press
alt + tab(twice)
it will open or go to the next window either (but again only one window)
still pressed down it goes through all windows till one releases it(opening one window)
if you press
winkey + tab
then it will tab minimized windows on the taskbar without opening the window

yes, I like the tab button, I have finished this post so its tab tab enter(saved)
