Currently in my .Xdefaults file I have Mwm*keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer Mwm*focusAutoRaise: true What I would like to have happen is when I deiconify a window, that window will receive the keyboard input focus. I believe to do this is one of two ways: 1. Set Mwm*keyboardFocusPolicy to explicit - the problem I have with this is that I have to <select> the icon, which to me is more cumbersome than having to move the mouse cursor over to the appropriate window. 2. Have some way of "warping" the mouse cursor over to the deiconified window inot focus. Any Ideas will be greatly appreciated . Thanks Larry S.
