2906.0. "DECterm and Input_Focus ?" by KETJE::PUTMANS (Close that Window, please) Mon Jun 11 1990 06:42

	Hi,

	is there a possibility to force input-focus to a new 
	created DECterm ?
	(I know this is against the style-guide,
	 and I personally wouldn't do it but,
	 some customers are real crazy :-)

	$ create/term/window_attribute=(input_focus) ???

	thanks,
	Eric .

    The window manager can do it for you. However everything you start will
    come up with input focus.(including decterms.)
    
    In your xdefaults file add the line
    wm*default.startupFocus: true
    
    logout and back in to read the new entry. From then on as you run decwindows
    apps they come up with input focus.
