I think these old functions where obsoleted a long time ago; but the byte-compiler warnings and describe-function help machinery to show them as obsolete is much more recent. So yeah, probably there wasn't a byte-compiler warning on 21.1 saying `unfocus-frame' was obsolete; but the function *was* obsolete anyway and suitable replacements had been introduced (and, I presume, documented). --=20 /L/e/k/t/u
