I have changed it to this: "If you are using a window system, the previously selected frame may be restored as the selected frame when returning to the command loop, because it still may have the window system's input focus." > Doc string of `select-frame-set-input-focus': > > "If `mouse-autoselect-window' is non-nil, also move mouse cursor to > FRAME's selected window. Otherwise, if `focus-follows-mouse' is > non-nil, move mouse cursor to FRAME." > > "Mouse cursor" is incorrect; "pointer" is correct (or "mouse pointer", > but, strictly speaking, "mouse" is redundant for the pointer). Right, I changed this. > Why "Otherwise"? Because the value of `focus-follows-mouse' is only checked if `mouse-autoselect-window' is nil. > Similar problems exist for the description in the Elisp manual (the > text is almost the same). In addition, the manual should say > something more about the differences between these two functions, and > mention when you might use one or the other. I don't know how to fix the Elisp manual. -- Bastien
