	** I'm trying to have a gnome compatible window manager so that when you click on the contents of the window the window stays put, it does NOT rise to cover other windows. Most people have not used such a window manager and have not yet realized the advantages of it. It makes it a lot easier to handle a bunch of windows. It is roughly equivalent to doubling the screen area. The PROBLEM is that some applications rise to the front own their own. For example, when switching from  a gnome-terminal to Firefox, Firefox decides to jump in front of the other windows, hiding their view -- even though the window manager didn't tell it to. I didn't ask for that. I just want to change focus and make that window stay where it is, stay behind that other window. If you want to get the feel of a non-rise window manager play around with olvwm. Most people go from "why do you want to do that" to "that's pretty cool". Once you get used to it you don't want to go back.		** I'm trying to have a gnome compatible window manager so that when you click on the contents of the window the window stays put, it does NOT rise to cover other windows.

	* {{wtf}} I agree with Teika, the problem looks more like a config issue. Non handled events are just passed untouched, so unbinding should work as expected, Sawfish does not force raises (I have been using enter focus mode for years without autoraises).

-	* {{no}} Better to reconfigure your sawfish binding, than to apply your patch ;) In fact that's the configuration I'm currently using on my ROX+sawfish desktop (focus without raise, enter+click focus). But thank you for your effort.	+	* {{no}} Better to reconfigure your sawfish binding, than to apply your patch ;) In fact that's the configuration I'm currently using on my ROX+sawfish desktop (focus without raise, enter+click focus).
