I.e. keeping Ctrl pressed while pressing Tab repeatedly cycles between the open buffers (preferably in order of last usage). C-S-tab cycles the reverse order. Pressing C-tab only one time switches to the last viewed buffer. I have tried swbuff-y but pressing C-tab only once just brings up the buffer-switcher and don't switch to last viewed buffer. Also, when I cycle to a another buffer name in the list I need to press RET to actually switch to it. The preferred way would be to switch to the currently highlighted buffer when I release the Ctrl key. Like Alt-Tab works in windows. Thanks in advance.
