Oh, I see. Then everything is ok and works as it is supposed to =)

Everything works as you described above: first click focuses the window
and second one hides the window. Only one click needed if the main
window already has focus. Is it a new behavior in 1.5.x? I can't
remember that in 1.3.x. So that made me think this is some kind of "bug"

Thanx! =)
May I ask you for a diff to try it with my 1.5.1?
