IIRC, you were the one to propose _not_ following a link in a non-selected window, and I initially said it made sense (so I implemented it unconditionally). Personally, I got irritated by that, and others said it would be confusing to novices too -- so I changed it to an option. Of course, I can remove it all-together if nobody finds it useful. But maybe it would make more sense to have an option would could make a mouse click in a non-selected window _only_ select that window rather than also setting point (or following links or whatever). That would be analogue to the x-mouse-click-focus-ignore-position for frame focus. WDOT? -- Kim F. Storm http://www.cua.dk
