Focus changer

Change focus between windows in all directions using your keyboard. The extension will first try to find a suitable window within the same monitor. If there is none, it will try to find one on the next monitor in that direction (in a multi-monitor setup).

Default shortcuts:

<Super>+h = Focus left
<Super>+j = Focus down
<Super>+k = Focus up
<Super>+l = Focus right

They can all be changed in the extension preferences.
