	I agree. There is an annoying bug in dmouse (intuition?) 
	refresh routine, however. When there are custom gadgets
	in a window (i.e. not close, size, drag, depth) dmouse
	doesn't refresh the window right when it brings it on top.
	A similar program, Mach II, doesn't have this bug, so it
	would be nice if somebody fixed it. Apart from that DMouse
	is an excellent program like many other Matt Dillon's
	little utilities. Dnet (little? Huh? :-) is one of my
	favorites, I use it almost every day.
