What were you trying to do?
Set explicit keyboard focus to my emacs window under gwm, using the
following code, without moving my mouse pointer into the emacs window:
(defun set-exp-focus ()
(if (= (window-status) 'root)
(setq exp-focus '())
(set-focus)
(progn
(setq exp-focus t)
(set-focus)
(set-colormap-focus))))
What's wrong:
Even though the emacs window had explicit focus, the text cursor
changed from a solid box to an outline. This also happens when I move my mouse
pointer into the title bar.
What should have happened:
It should keep the cursor solid, showing that keyboard focus is still
in the emacs window.
I'm not positive it's a bug, but I find it somewhat annoying.
