There isn't a "mouse focus". Mouse events are tied to window they happen in, not the one with focus. If you use a window manager that doesn't change the keyboard focus on mouse events, it's possible to have mouse events happen in a window that doesn't have the focus. http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.
