Customizable Linux Workspace Switcher

AWESOME! This is a small program for linux to switch between desktop/workspaces with customizable labels.

Requires the package NX (descendant of Xotcl) https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/36705

Tested on Ubuntu 12.04 with Unity 2D and Gnome (no effects).

At the moment will not work on Unity 3D or Gnome with effects, but it can easily be fixed by modifing the wmctrl -s statement.

ENJOY..!!!
