Winion

An AutoHotKey script for Windows that lets a user change virtual desktops using keyboard shortcuts inspired by Notion / Ion3 and Vim.

Overview

This is forked from pmb6tz, but with modified mappings to match Notion.

This script creates 'better' hotkeys for switching virtual desktops in windows 10. I built this to better mirror the mapping Notion / Ion3 provides.

Installation

Install AutoHotKey, then run the desktop_switcher.ahk script (open with AutoHotKey if prompted). I would recommend putting it in your startup folder and it'll be invoked on login.
