If people are writing Window Managers for GNUstep, it would be nice to
discuss how to implement focusing so that it works well with GNUstep Apps.
WindowMaker (and others) tend to treat apps as a bunch of windows rather
than one app (with key and main windows, etc).
That's part of the reason that I start porting the hackedbox into StepBox.
Since I just finished the porting and haven't fully understood the source
code,
it would be better that the interaction between GNUstep application and
window manager
could be documented as a specification.
Once the specification is done, it will be clear which part is responsible
for what
and be more easy to fix bugs.
By the way, for whoever is interested, I would like to change the name of
StepBox.
StepBox is O.K, but not great. Any suggestion ?
