I need som help with receiving keyboard input in a program running
under control of olwm.

I'm running Openwin 2.0 on a SS1+ width TWO SCREENS.  The program
is based on XLib.

I'm just able to receive keyboard input from the windows on one of the 
screens.  olwm is started width the option -follow (keyboard input follows the
mouse).

The program sets the KeyPressMask for the window and the window manager
is told that the window wants keyboard input  (input hint flag to the 
window manager).

When a key is pushed the window manager beeps so it seems that 
the windowmanager receives the input but will not send it to my
application. 

I would appreciate to receive a solution to this problem.
