At impulse, I downloaded and compiled it. The 'Usage:' path works for me. >From usability point of view, the documentation (and maybe the application itself) is missing a way to find out what window handles are there now. Remember - do not ask the window manager for this information! How about having xfocus display a list of the handles of all open windows (along with some identifying information such as window title or controlling process ID - for the user to match up with more information using ps's output) when provided with no window handle argument? When done, xfocus will be cool little application! --- Omer -- You haven't made an impact on the world before you caused a Debian release to be named after Snufkin.
