README.md

This is a small patch to Metacity, the window manager for the Gnome 2.0 desktop. This patch enables keyboard navigation of the multi-desktop to "wrap around" from the last desktop to the first, or vice versa.

This feature is available on the Motif multi-desktop window manager, so it's been around since 1997 or so. Why modern desktops don't support this is beyond me, but as a developer with a fondness for keyboard solutions, it's a must-have.
