One request?

I usually only have 2 or 3 windows open at one time.

If it's that low, could Telescope use this command instead of displaying the windows on the screen?

matchbox-remote -next


Please?

You mean run this command on F5 press instead of showing UI?

Absolutely!

I think you'll love this idea!

Doesn't it means that you don't need telescope completely?
If F5 will call matchbox-remote, then there is no way for you to show telescope's UI, right?

Yep!

Exactly!

It still would make an awesome feature for those who are using their tablet lightly while having only like 2 or 3 windows currently running at the time.

Honestly, there's really not much of a reason to see Telescope's UI with that few of windows running.

Just my opinion though.

It would be really cool to cycle through windows using F5 but then there is no way to open the launcher.

Would be nice to have that icon bar to select categories and replace the category name at top and the dots at bottom. If the category spilled over into a second page it could display the current page number and max page number on the selected icon and tapping that icon would cycle through the pages for that category.

Only problem would be assigning icons to categories and only showing icons for the installed categories. I assume there would be a default icon that is bound to any category it doesn't know about. But if I rename the internet category I should be able to manually bind the globe icon to it.

There is also the problem of too many categories. I only have six but what about those that have more than eight? Do the icons get smaller (not good for finger tapping) or do left and right arrows appear on the ends or does a single icon appear on one end that cycles through icon bars?
