I've attempted to wade through the Ultrix manuals to find the solution to
this annoying problem, but haven't hit on the right library call yet.  

What is the 'trick' which will allow an applications dialogs and 
top level shell widgets to become 'selectable' by dxwm (and prehaps any
click-to-select window manager).    I have set the correct size hints for 
the top level shell, so dxwm has a resize/iconify/title bar attached to
the realized window, but when I click on the window or attempt to type into
a dialog within it, keyboard input remains focused on the last dxterm 
clicked on.   Mouse events, on the other hand, behave correctly.

I suspect I'm missing something obvious...  

	Thanks,
