There are tools to do it as people allude to but I can't help but feel this is a square peg in a round whole solution. When I use linux, I use a tiling window manager, when I use OSX, I use tabbed terminals and fullscreen mode and workspaces. Also, I should note that the Command-~ functionality which doesn't exist on Windows and spotlight is enough to make me prefer the OSX desktop to the Windows one.
