I typically run Vile (http://www.invisible-island.net/vile/vile.html) in an rxvt window but occasionally I run it using it's native Xwindow interface (xvile).
I use these settings to visually track window focus: BorderColor "red" BorderTileForeground "#d7d7d7" BorderTileBackground "#d7d7d7" ctwm seems to have focus issues with xvile. The best way I can describe this behavior is that only the move recently executed copy of xvile will receive the focus. I can raise older copies of xvile but they won't accept the keyboard focus. There 2 "work arounds" for this but either are convenient: - forcing the focus using a f.focus call in the WindowOps menu - start multiple copies of xvile and restart ctwm (f.restart), after this focus is simply controlled with the mouse in the usual fashion I also tried the ForceFocus setting in .ctwmrc but that didn't seem to have a noticeable effect. I tested ctwm/xvile back to ctwm 3.8.2 but they behaved the same so I assume this is something quarky to xvile but it doesn't seem to have any X specific settings or resources that would effect this behavior.
