Skippy-XD packages (for Ubuntu users) and compilation instructions

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all,
This topic pops up on the list every two years or so, so I figured
that some Xfce users would be interested in this.

Skippy-XD is a full-screen task-switcher for X11 in the style of Mac
OS X's Exposé feature. [1] A minor fork of the latest Skippy-XD 0.5.0
release is currently hosted on Google Code [2] and, after figuring out
all the necessary deps, I came up with precompiled packages for Ubuntu
users on my PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~landronimirc/+archive/skippy-xd .
[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skippy_(X)
[2] http://code.google.com/p/skippy-xd/

For compilation instructions see the Ubuntu Wiki:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Skippy . For usage and setup instructions see
the Google Code wiki:
http://code.google.com/p/skippy-xd/wiki/SetupGuide .

Regards,
Liviu

PS Skippy-XD may crash somewhat often. For workaround tips see the Ubuntu Wiki.
