<div>Dom,<br><br>Well have you tried to look for a window manager to easily change focus? I know that ratpoison has features to switch focus between windows via hotkeys. You could map a hotkey to an irxevent command, and immediately grab focus when needed.

</a><br>I run into this same problem. My only solution is to try to configure<br>everything to my liking and then any menus that NEED focus, run over to<br>my desk and control properly. If you get something better I'd love to
