Here's the info portion of his code. I have re-written it in Ada if anyone
is interested.

/* Known Bugs/Problems:
1. Doesn't know sticky property of windows. (brings them to top any ways).
2. Doesn't know if a toplevel window wants input focus or not. It will ask
the 'next' window to take input focus. If it doesn't take it, hit F5
again.

I did not respond to this note because although it says CYCLE, it is looking
for AUTOFOCUS. CYCLE allows you to switch input focus using the F5 key.
I do not have any objections to the code distributed to outside of Digital
as long as I am NOT considered responsible for maintaining it and answering
questions about it.
BTW, I have not used it for a while so you may want to check it out with
current version of DECwindows.

| I'm using autofocus on DECWindows V2, VMS X5.3-461, and it still works
fine.

Then may be you know the author of AUTOFOCUS.

According to the AUTOFOCUS.C source file it was written by
Dave Burleigh. I couldn't find him in ELF though so have no
idea who he is.
FWIW,

| Dave Burleigh is no longer with Digital, or so I gather from Note 120 in
DW_EXAMPLES. Reading between the lines in that topic, I suspect Dave was
a contract worker who had something to do with DECwindows courses and customer
demos.
In any event, he's gone...

He's a god. He stills appears from time to time. He generated quite a
few examples for X and the Toolkit to be used in training.
If you have taken the Programming with DECwindows course, he had a lot to
do with the training material.

| Hmmm...
I confess.
Not a god, nor a demon (contrary to the ill-chosen name of the
cluster I'm running on) either.
I am a consultant (or contract worker, or whatever), and so I
appear from time to time. Currently, I'm working on a Motif book
for Digital Press.
Cheers,
Dave
