Add multitasking support #144

This is just a proposal. I know that the TXT's resources are very limited. So we should try to make this as lightweight as possible. Maybe we will try this and decide that this should not be enabled by default.

[ ] Allow running of multiple apps and introducing a mechanism to switch between the apps
[ ] Integrate this in the power popup #143

Is this possible?

ski7777 commented 1 year ago

@hypnotoad Probably you are most familiar with the new Qt5/X11 solution. Is there a chance of implementing this?

hypnotoad commented 1 year ago

I am in turn not familiar with touch usability, but if someone has a concept or some concrete idea, I think we should discuss it.

For instance, we could extend the top bar with a "minimize" icon and re-open an app when the launcher launches it again.

ski7777 commented 1 year ago

I will put that on hold at least until v1.0.0 is out

@hypnotoad You implemented these X11 features. Do you think it is possible to hid/show apps?
