In preliminary tests with Netscape it seemed to do the right thing.
(I could do Alt-F with the mouse pointer anywhere in the Netscape
window and immediately type the string to search for and hit return
because the `popup' window already had focus.)
Would you like to test it, too? Should I add an option for .ctwmrc to
enable or disable this?
I fear that this is altogether too simplistic, though. It might break
things all over the place. Would be nifty if it did really work,
though.
Whatcha think?
