  20. After further experimentation, I've found the problem.  If the X
  21. resource "*keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer" is present, datebook dies
  22. from simple actions like hitting the right arrow to scroll to next
  23. month.  If this resource is not present, it seems to work fine.  This
  24. seems to be a new problem; it didn't happen with the old version of
  25. datebook on the HP400.  I've gotten around the problem by making the
  26. resource specific to the window managers: "Vuewm*keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer",
  27. "Mwm*keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer", etc.
