Flip between apps with camera button
 
Here is how you can use the camera button to flip between open apps - like ALT+TAB in windows.
Install Shortcutd
and put this command in the "Custom shell command" box:
Code:

matchbox-remote -next

With "prev" it flips only between 2apps, while using "next" it flips between all the open windows in my N900.

Hmm.. The tab button is the Ctrl+arrow right? I can't make it to work. A little help

The "tab" button is the camera half press when with ShortcutD (an app on repository) you set the camera button behavior to launch the command uppercase wrote.

I was using till now camera button with CSSU (so with a modified hildon desktop) using single column task switcher, a gconf value for /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/key-actions/ctrl_backspace_in_tasknav taken from here and shortcutD to set the camera button to launch dashboard, but the method written here is a lot better.

You realise that the cssu has a gconf setting to enable this?

Either way, cheers for to tip bro!

I have not installed the cssu yet, but I realise there are many ways to get this.
I found that hack long ago on my N800, I searched the forum for matchbox-remote and didn't find it so thought I share this. Could be helpful for theme designers, just type matchbox-remote for all the options.
