    I think the answer is no (unless they've added functionality within their alt-tabs to show minimised apps?)

    Alternatively, Fluxbox puts minimised apps into the little taskbar, a la Windows, so that you can maximise them from there, while being almost identical to Blackbox is most other aspects.

    If you have a middle mouse button (scroll wheel on mine) you can click that and bring up the workspace menu. It only saves you one step, but it's still one less.
