Mac OSX - Command-Tab to single window only

Another option for those of you looking for a much faster window switcher, albeit not as feature-rich as something like witch, is contexts:

This is currently my task switcher, as the latency in witch drove me crazy.


I think you really need to use a utility to do this. I have been using HyperSwitch for some time and it does the trick.

By default HyperSwitch allows you to switch between open windows using Option+Tab, and keeps Command+Tab the same, but you can always change that.

I was also looking at the app Witch, but I couldn't bear to spend $20 (now $14) on an Alt+Tab replacement.
