Changelog:

• v0.7

  • Cinnamon 2.4
  • put all settings to extension setting screen
  • AutoTile: only tile non-minimized windows
  • AutoTile: improve on multi monitor (only tile windows in current screen)

• v0.6

  • merge some upstream changes from vibou.gTile (V21)

  • hide on escape
  • better multi-monitor support
  • new feature: select and tile by keyboard (move with Arrows, Shift+Arrow to select area, space or enter to tile window)
