hammerspoon-alttab

alttab is Hammerspoon powered alternative window switcher.

Why?

As a developer, I spend most of my time in terminal and browser, constantly switching between them. This extension has been written so I can avoid switching to Finder, somehow it always finds (hence a name) a way to annoy me.

Finder is always there

Installation

  • Install Hammerspoon

  • git clone this repository to ~/.hammerspoon config directory:

    git clone https://github.com/selectnull/hammerspoon-alttab.git ~/.hammerspoon/hammerspoon-alttab

Configuration

Add these lines to your ~/.hammerspoon/init.lua file:

local alttab = require("hammerspoon-alttab")
alttab.registerDefaultBindings('.')

This will set the following default key bindings:

  • cmd+. to switch to next window
  • cmd+alt+. to add or remove currently focused window to cycle list
  • cmd+ctrl+alt+. to display debug info in Hammerspoon console

Instead of . you may use any other key, just pass it to registerDefaultBindings method.

You might also not like default modifiers used by registerDefaultBindings. In that case, you can register your own:

local alttab = require("hammerspoon-alttab")
hs.hotkey.bind({"alt"}, "tab", alttab.focusNext)
hs.hotkey.bind({"alt", "shift"}, "tab", alttab.toggleWindow)
hs.hotkey.bind({"alt", "ctrl", "shift"}, "tab", alttab.debug)
