[wmii] next/previous view

I added the following code to rc.wmii to allow me to move backward and
forward in the list of tags (views?). The commands shown here cycle
from the last to the first tag and vice versa.

The keybinding shown here conflicts with the default keybinding
MODKEY-p for executing programs. I use MODKEY-x for that (eXecute).

What do people think? Would it be worth it to include this in the
distro?

fn Key-$MODKEY-n { wmiir xwrite /ctl view `{next_tag} }
fn Key-$MODKEY-p { wmiir xwrite /ctl view `{prev_tag} }

fn current_tag {
        wmiir read /tag/sel/ctl
}

fn next_tag {
        { read_tags ; read_tags } | /bin/grep -A 1 `{current_tag} | head -n 2 | tail -n +2
}

fn prev_tag {
        { read_tags ; read_tags } | /bin/grep -B 1 `{current_tag} | tail -n 2 | head -n 1
}
