Use wmctrl instead of xdotool for getting classname/activating windows

[perk11]

Thanks for making this, I was about to write something like this and found it.

You are saying in readme that xdotool is the slow part. And I noticed that you already run wmctrl -l.

If you run wmctrl -l -x instead, that will return the list of windows with class name which should be parsable. You can also use wmctrl to activate windows with -a option, e.g. wmctrl -x -a class.name.goes.here and then you don't need to run xdotool at all.

Hell yeah!

Didn't know about wmctrl -l -x. I'll do some test on my old 32bit laptop to see how it compared to xdotool search -classname <classname>, the hog.

Regarding using wmctrl to switch to the target window, I need to see how it behaves.
The xdotool windowactivate <window_id> isn't affecting performance much.
