Great to hear that you have *found* windowmaker :-)
I also have 'sloppy' as FocusMode, there is only one complaint that I have with this.
I'd like to raise the window when I click *in* the window, currently the window gets raised only when I click the titlebar,

any suggestions?

kind regards,
Luke
