A few weeks ago, there were a couple postings about not getting
keyboard entry in windows under TWM with XV11R3 on Sun's.  Tom
LaStrange posted a patch for the "infamous no-typing-into-windows
bug".  I too have this problem.  Since upgrading to R3 from R2
I have been unable to use TWM.  I tried the posted patch (106??),
but it makes no difference.

The menus and window focus indications seem to work fine.  When
I type, the text cursor flashes but does not advance and no
characters appear.  Typing simple commands gets no response.
I am using a Sun 3/60 w/ CG4 and have tried both CC and GCC for
server (with and without Purdue speedups) and TWM.

Our internet connection was down for a few days, so forgive me
if the solution has already been posted.
