+Alt-tab
+=======
+
+Description
+-----------
+This patch add alt-tab like functionality to dwm.
+It cycles through windows/clients in their recently used order.
+
+Configuration Options
+---------------------
+* `tabModKey` - If this key is hold the alt-tab functionality stays acitve. This key must be the same as key that is used to active functin altTabStart
+* `tabCycleKey` - If this key is hit the alt-tab program moves one position forward in clients stack. This key must be the same as key that is used to active functin altTabStart
+* `tabPosY` - Tab position on Y axis, 0 = bottom, 1 = center, 2 = top
+* `tabPosX` - Tab position on X axis, 0 = left, 1 = center, 2 = right
+* `maxWTab` - Tab menu width
+* `maxHTab` - Tab menu height
+
+keycode
+-------
+tabModkye and tabCycleKey are keycodes values.
+If you want to change them you can get different keycode values from "get-xkey" program bellow.
+
+Compile get-xkey
+```
+# compile
+gcc get-xkey.c -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -o get-xkey
+# run
+./get-xkey
+```
+Now just press desired key and watch output in stdout.
+To quit program just close the window or in the terminal press Ctrl+c.
+
+Notes
+-----
+This patch is also hosted on my [github](https://github.com/ViliamKovac1223/dwm-ViliamKovac1223-build/tree/main/patches).
