command-tab between Terminal windows

Hi, when I have multiple Terminal windows, I want to Command tab between these windows (like I can in Windows XP). However. the MacOS is treating the Terminal windows as one application. Anyone know how I can change this behaviour?

Windows XP Pro

In Mac OS X, Command-Tab cycles only through applications. If you want to cycle through the open windows of a particular application, use the keystroke Command-`. This works for all applications that use multiple windows.

For clarity, the (`) key is just above the Tab key, i.e. the one where tilde (~) is the uppercase character. Just hold down the Command key and hit ` to cycle through open Terminal windows.
