When I open a new window, I want the focus to be on that window.  I dont 
want to move my mouse to it or click the titlebar. 

Yes, it works if you want to click the titlebar....which is what I dont want 
to do.  It seems you need to have your mouse run all over the place to get 
anything accomplished.

Actually, someone held a knife to my back and told me to switch from Flux to 
Waimea...now!  Then in the twinkling of an eye, my cowdog Kate, jumped up 
and nipped them in the backside....where I then overtook them and removed 
the knife from the offender. 

You know how it is, you use something for a long time and then try to 
change...and things are way different.  *;o)
