Hi all, I am currently having a problem with XMonad correctly switching focus from the Speedbar ( in File mode ) and the editing window. Choosing a file in the Speedbar loads that file into the editing window but XMonad's focus stays in the speedbar. Surprisingly I can edit and navigate the file just fine in the editing window ( meaning all my keypress events are caught by the editing window ), but XMonad still thinks that the Speedbar is the master window. If I now switch layouts the Speedbar truly becomes the master window, also the red border stays with the Speedbar while I am typing in the editing window. I then have to explicitly move focus ( using Alt-j etc ) to the editing window.
In Buffer Mode, selecting a buffer in the Speedbar loads it in the editing window, but focus and keypress events correctly stay in the Speedbar window.
Thanks, deech
Emacs is moving the focus illegally per the ICCCM.
