does anybody know why the Alt-Tab mechanism in OS/2 is different from
the one in Windows (or Win-OS/2) ?
I would like to switch back and forth between two windows/sessions
 without having to call the task manager every time,
this would be especially helpful for switching between two Full screen
sessions.
BTW what's the exact difference between Alt-Tab and Alt-Esc?
Is this all in the docs, am I missing something?

Have fun
