[ANNOUNCEMENT] Server Test 79

[Pille Geert (bizvdm)]

Hallo Harold and Kensuke,

Is it possible in XWin -multiwindow, to have the keyboard focus follow the
active window?  When I switch windows with ctrl-tab, and start typing, input
still goes to the previous window.

Or is this not desirable for some reason?

Thanks,

Gerard

PS. Until now, I was using XWin -rootless, and mwm handled keyboard focus.
Am I correct that you don't need a (or another) window manager with
-multiwindow?
