	Whatever was last on top when you last used that application is 
still on top when you switch back.  In other words, it preserves 
whatever order had previously been present.  I have not yet figured 
out how to switch/cycle windows within a particular application, 
however.

	Ahh, sorry.  I misunderstood.  As best I can tell, it seems to 
switch in a fixed order between all open applications.  Basically, I 
think it uses the order that the icons are displayed in the Dock 
(left to right, in my case).
