Bob:
I did browse the threads on the forum, and saw that task switching was
covered in quite a bit of posts. There was a lot of code, some of
which claimed to work for some people.
The essential strategy seemed to be centered around to be able to key
in something that would hook to the name/title/caption of the windows
process to bring it into focus. One of the major efforts was to
emulate the way emacs switches among windows, but i'm not familiar
enough with emacs to know if that's good enough to start with as a
markup.
I have AutoMate 6, for instance, and should be able to do it with that
and not have to use yet another kb macro language to implement it.
Here's the head of a long series of posts on the issue. As the guy
says, and I can confirm from personal experience with other macro-key
automation efforts, you can waste a lot of time with this.

Searching for 'winset' I get 1392 matches on the AHK community forum,
but 0 (zero) hits for 'deaq'. So whatevern model they are trying to
implement, it's not based on the DESQ key - number model.
Here's a thread where the guy is trying to tap the 'win' key (press-
release) to activate something,without interfering with his other hot
key win+key shortcuts. This press-release action, like Google Desktop
Search double click of control key, is what the "DESQ" key does (Alt
key) (tho just once). If I'm going to have to write the code, I'm
going to start with Automate 6, I guess.
