Something like Expose

The All about Linux blog discusses Kompose, which is much like Mac OS X's Expose feature.

I've installed this on my test desktop, which is running KDE 3.5 on top of Kubuntu at the moment. It's available from the Kubuntu/Ubuntu archives, so a quick apt-get install kompose is all you need.

Overall, I like it. I've been itching for this kind of feature on Linux since I tried it on my Mac. Kompose works pretty well, but it's dog-slow compared to the Mac version. Obviously, Kompose is still in development and is only at version 0.5 at the moment -- so it will probably speed up in time.

We all love screenshots, so head over to the Kompose site for a peek.
