Dear list,

first, let me say, it's nice to see ctwm back in maintenance
and with a new version.

About my java problem:
  Java applications do not regain focus after temporarily
  switching to any other application. Also (in other java applications)
  I can only type in dialogs if the parent window has the focus.

I have found this older rejected bug at java:
  http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6798064
It seems the Java people think it's a bug in the respective wm's.

I also found some discussions about this at the fvwm forums,
for example:
  http://www.fvwmforums.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2930
Often a "lenient" focus handling mode is proposed
to get java applications to some state of working.

Is there a similar work-around possible in ctwm?

Regards,
Matthias Kievernagel
