Task Bar Organizing

Post by a.bowers »

My biggest quibble with Cinnamon so far is the operation of the task bar (or whatever you call it in Linux). It seems you have a choice between Windows 98-like behavior where each window you open gets a new tile stacked left-to-right in the order you opened them, or Windows 7-like behavior where like windows are collated into one small tile.

I want Windows XP-like behavior, where the tiles are kept separate on the task bar, but grouped with like windows. Anyone know of an applet or extension that can do that, or am I going to have to write my own? If the latter, does anyone know any good resources to learn how to write applets?
