<code snipped> Thanks for the code snippet. I still think that - if the other WMs let users focus the window anyway - ctwm probably should too. I also found that disabling SloppyFocus cured another problem I had with ctwm: switching by key combination to a windowless workspace often (not always) made it impossible to switch to a different workspace via the keyboard. This doesn't seem to occur without SloppyFocus, so I'll just use ctwm this way for now. Thanks, DN -- Dario Niedermann.
