Help!

I may be suffering from brain rot, but for the life of me I can't
figure out what combination of override_redirect, transient_for, and
wmhints.input = True is needed to allow me to type in a popup window.
I'm trying to run the program under olwm, which says it is
pathologically ICCCM compliant.  

What I need is the words to tell the window manager to give a popup
widget (at the moment I'm using a transientShellClass, but I've also
tried overrideRedirectShellClass and wmShellClass) the input focus
when I enter that popup.

If anyone knows of code that does this (working under an ICCCM
compliant window manager), PLEASE point me to it.

Thanks a bunch!
