I need it programmatically, without user's interaction. But now I am thinking to use `(select-frame-set-input-focus (selected-frame))` instead, to bring the user back to Emacs, let me try... (progn (sleep-for 10) (select-frame-set-input-focus (selected-frame))) So that worked well, I think I must use that method, and case is resolved now. -- Jean Louis
