How do I get the MS windows-like mouse-click focus behavior in X windows? I

(Presently a window becomes active when I place the mouse within the

Thanks for any
This is all up to the Windows Manager you are using... twm doesnt have too many
options... Try IceWM, or KDE. They have a ton of options, and you can
configure windows actions the way you want. I *think* IceWM will do it by
default.

I see that you are using Windos 9x/ME. Have you tried my start, and if

Will do the next time I have time to kill (i.e., not too soon).
