Message-ID: <alej8gei6l.fsf@nyc-qws-005.delacy.com> (raw)
GNU Emacs 23.0.60.4 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.8.20)
of 2008-05-05 on nyc-qws-005
'--with-x-toolkit=gtk' '--prefix=/mnt/office/dev/opt'
I just noticed that I need to click the mouse to switch the focus
between emacs windows (as opposed to emacs frames/X windows which are
switched between based on the mouse movement).
Even though the documentation of focus-follows-mouse makes it abundantly
clear that this is not the intent of the variable, I think it would be
better if emacs switched the emacs window focus based on mouse movement
when this variable is set to non-nil.
