  Not the way you're trying to do it. When you mark text in a window,
you are in fact clicking inside the window... see the problem? The way
around this is to *NOT* have clicks-inside-window raise the window.

Style * SloppyFocus
Style * ClickToFocusRaisesOff
Style * MouseFocusClickRaisesOff

  Set up to raise the window when you click on any of the four sides

DestroyFunc RaiseOrMove
AddToFunc RaiseOrMove
+ I Raise
+ M Move

Mouse 1 ST A Function RaiseOrMove

  With this setup, I can focus in a window without raising it. I can
even be typing away in a window while a smaller window is raised and
floating above it in a corner.

If you had purchased $1000 of _at_home stock in 1999, today you would
have $1.30.  If you had purchased $1000 of beer in 1999, today you
would still have $59 in empty cans.
