In FVWM (under /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm2-devel), you can set the window raising & moving, focus changing, & pointer moving poiclies to achieve what you want. You can even set it per window (based on its resource or title). You should install fvwm-themes too (in /usr/ports/x11-themes/fvwm-themes) if you don't want to directly edit the configuration files. - Parv -- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
