No, not to me :-) Having used many, many window managers over the years, I do not like my mouse actions within windows to raise that window. I like to be able to type in one application, with another hovering to the side or something, so I can monitor it, on top. Older ones have always worked like that, and I'm just used to it. I do agree that there are some focus problems, especially regarding keyboard focus. If I were you, I would just use a window manager that you like. Metacity is for new people who don't need that much customization ability, or old farts like me who have stopped caring a whole hell of a lot :-). RedHat simplified the desktop so that more pressing issues (system stability, performance, and compatibility) could be focused on. For users like you, who obviously have experience, I would just embrace the beauty of choice within the open source world and just use what suits you :-). -- Merc zenmerc@xxxxxxxxxxx Yeah.
