I am currently trying to write a program which will emulate the mouse
(amongst other things), however I have not been able to successfully send
button press events to windows created with anything other than Xlib.  So
far I've tried using PointerWindow, InputFocus, and tracking down through
child windows, as the window id to XSendEvent, all to no avail.  Could some
kind soul please explain what I am doing wrong (or even send me a piece of
sample code to do this :-)).

I'll summarise mail to the net.  I am running DECwindows on a VAXstation
3100-38 SPX under VMS 5.3-1.

Thanks in advance,

Alistair Grant
