Hi !

I have a doubt from the man page:

              GrabFocus causes a newly mapped window to
              grab the focus, while GrabFocusOff turns
              this off. GrabFocus is the default for
              ClickToFocus windows and GrabFocusOff is the
              default for MouseFocus and SloppyFocus win­
              dows. Note that this option is switched
              back to the default every time you change
              the focus policy. You have to use it after
              the initial ClickToFocus/MouseFocus/Sloppy­
              Focus.

to me (non native English) this means that if I issue:

Style * ClickToFocus

than I automatically get GrabFocus for free. But experimentally this is
not true (new windows are not raised/don't get focus).

Everything is fine if I issue:

Style * ClickToFocus, GrabFocus

but GrabFocus should be the default with ClickToFocus, or not ?

I don't know if the problem is in the code, in the man page, or in my
poor understanding of what it says ....

Thanks a lot !

cheers,
Giuseppe.
