Well, I did not intended to change the default behaviour (I mentioned it in a previous mail) - and looking at what the commits here looks like, it is basically the same idea I had. Minor difference is that the option name I propose is mousefocuspolicy, and can take two values for now, "none" (default, and no mouse support), and "click" to support selecting frames on mouse click. (which I believe is the other difference from the links, I chose to let the mouse select frames, not windows). I can change the option name or other things. Anyway, if adding basic mouse support is not desired, I won't complain, and I will be happy with the current state of ratpoison! :) Note that I asked on the mailing list before coding something though, and had only a (one) positive feedback, so I thought it was ok. > I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "callback", but I suggest you try > to avoid over-complicated solutions. :) That was not my intention :) I wrote the last patch with exactly this intention in mind. Hum, I am not sure what to do now :) I you are still interested in the feature and that it needs to be rebased/reworked, please send me a line!
