Zeripath's Cinnamon Window List (Now updated to work with Cinnamon-2.2/Mint-17.)

This applet is a modified version of the original window-list but with features for controlling maximized windows.

• Clicking on the Window List Button for a focused Maximized window will Unmaximize it. Clicking once again will Minimize it.

• Clicking on the Window List Button for a Minimized window will Restore the window, clicking once again will Minimize it.

• Double-clicking on the Window List Button for a Maximized window will Minimize the window.

• Double-clicking on the Window List Button for a Minimized or Unmaximized window will Maximize the window.

These features are very helpful if you wish to turn off titlebars for maximized windows and have a flipped menu bar. I use this with the cinnamon window buttons applet and a modified theme which removes the titlebars. (Please see the associated patch-mint-x-theme project: https://github.com/zeripath/cinnamon-applets/tree/master/patch-mint-x-theme )

The install script will replace the default cinnamon window-list with my version of the applet.
