For example, I want to bind f.focus to a key event much the same way it can be bound to a button event. If this is dumb to even suggest such a thing for a window manager (I don't think it is and what I've seen about X internals indicates to me that it is a possibility) would someone please set me straight on the issue? Thanks in advance ... Dave -- (setq mail '("tale@pawl.rpi.edu" "tale@itsgw.rpi.edu" "tale@rpitsmts.bitnet"))
