I wrote xtools and I agree it is a hack. As an X novice at that time I
was not aware of the ramifications of grabbing events from the root
window. It has served me well enough, though.  I might go over to Ed
Moy's xinit with startup file ~/.xinit (one less process). In any case
I have no further intention of doing anything more with xtools. Anybody
is welcome to trash it or improve it as they wish.
