I hope this is the right newsgroup in which to ask this question.  I looked
for a frequently-asked-questions list here and didn't find one.  Apologies
if such a list exists and this question is on it ...

I just built and fired up the OpenLook window manager (olwm) from the
X11R4 distribution.  I like it a lot and would use it permanently except
for the fact that I HAVE to have the vtwm window manager's virtual
desktop ...

But it has a bug in that the window with input focus does not get brought
to the top automagically - I hafta click in the title bar.  This occurs
whether or not I'm in focus-follows-mouse mode (which is the One True Way :-).

Does anybody know of a fix?  Is this program being actively worked on
anywhere?  If so, where can I send suggestions and/or bug reports?

AdTHANKSvance for any assistance.  I'll post a summary of private responses
that don't duplicate any posted replies.
