- In other windowing environments, it is possible to change
- the 'focus' ( the active window ) by simply positioning the mouse
- in the window without having to click. I am using a program which
- can become confusing if you move out of the window to do something
- and then have to click twice (once to change focus, then once to
- execute a command) to get back.
-
- Any information would be appreciated. I didn't see any reference to this
- in the FAQ. Please reply via e-mail to: goldfarb@tomcat.rd.ray.com
