One of the biggest things I miss from Windows 7 when I'm on Linux is the ability to push WinKey and a number to switch to the program in that place on the task bar. (e.g. You push WinKey+1, and it switches to the first program in the taskbar.) Is there a way to replicate that on Ubuntu 12.10 with Cinnamon? I tried to add custom shortcuts to do it, but I don't know any commands to switch to windows by their place in the taskbar. Is this possible?

In Unity that's how it works. If I hold Super (WinKey) it shows me the number to hit for each app in the launcher bar. |

In Unity Desktop Environment this option is there by default. Just hold the Windows key (also called super) and the numbers for the shortcut will appear on each program's icon. I don't think Cinnamon has this option. |
