Hi Wagner, Ivan,
Thanks for the answers, but none of these are what I am looking for. Ratpoison was unique in this regard, so it is a bit hard to understand the behavior without seeing it. Here is an example:
Suppose I have two windows in a single workspace, both visible at the same time (e.g., vertical tiled). One of them is xterm and the other is firefox. My focus is on xterm and I am typing something. Then I decide to click a link on the browser. When I start to type again, I want the keys to go directly to xterm, without needing to move the mouse to give xterm the focus, or using some shortcut (e.g., mod+j) to move the focus back to xterm.
In other words, I want mouse actions to have no influence on the focus. Pretty much the opposite of focus-follow-mouse (when you use the mouse) and pointer-follows-focus (when you use the keyboard).
Well, you can disable focus-follows-mouse... but I think clicking with it might set the focus (not too sure about this). Completely removing the mouse pointer from the equation of focus might be possible, but I don't know enough of XMonad's details to be able to answer this definitively. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
