Hi, thanks for your work on Komorebi! It's by far the slickest TWM I've run across for Windows.

On macOS I'm a heavy user of Amethyst, which allows you to move and cycle through focused windows in a clockwise/counterclockwise fashion. It'd be great if komorebic could also offer this functionality so that instead of needing to bind keys for eight window operations (focus "left"/"right"/"up"/"down" and move "left"/"right"/"up"/"down") I could get by with half that many.

Cycling would also be useful for workspace and monitor navigation, however komorebic query makes it pretty straightforward to implement that myself in my AHK config script.

@talimity Thanks for the positive feedback! Check out the branch that I just pushed and see how those changes and new commands work out for you.

Hey that was quick, thanks! Not familiar with Rust but the changes look straightforward so I think the new commands should let me perfectly replicate my macOS Amethyst setup, so it looks great to me.

Thanks again 👍

If you're not in a position to compile the branch from source, you can download the prebuilt binaries from here to try out.

Once you are able to confirm that you're able to use the cycle commands as expected I'll merge the changes to the master branch and close this issue.

Ahh, didn't notice the build action. Just downloaded it and spent some time messing around with the new cycle commands and they all appear to work as expected for windows/workspaces/monitors -- though in the case of monitors I only have two so I can't verify direction.
