I always liked xman but HATED the menus always appearing when ever I moved
my cursor through the window.  I have a I have enclosed a patch for
that.  The entire patch is one word in one file.  EnterWindowMask is
changed to ButtonPressMask in the file buttons.c.  With this change
you need to button down to have the menu appear.  Any button will do.

Enjoy.
