Hi,

how can I prevent fvwm from automatically switching to the desktop page
where an application like gajim receives a message and activates a
window (or whatever it does to force this switch)?

As you can imagine, it?s very annoying when you?re suddenly switched to
a different program residing on a different page, especially while
you?re typing somewhere else.

Years ago I added this to my config to solve this problem:

DestroyFunc EWMHActivateWindowFunc
Style * !FPFocusByProgram

More recently the 2nd line caused problems with Java keyboard focus so I commented it out. The DestroyFunc alone seems to be working fine.
