But it's not just switching to the *last* window used. If you hold in the
ALT key and keep pressing TAB, you can pick any of the currently running
applications even if it wasn't the last one used.
I have heard this referred to as the "ALT+TAB Dialog" (spoken, without
saying the "plus" sign) but I can't find this written anywhere to back me
up. I've heard it referred to this way since Windows 3.1 days at least,
but that may just be a slang name that developers have coined for it.
