Well, thanks to the several people who clued me in that the way to make
this init work was to press Command-Tab while selecting a file in a
background window.

Problem is, it does not work for me.  I get the tab key repeating, the
background window comes to the front, and the tab characters rename
the file into something I did not intend.

The RearWindow icon shows last of all icons on startup (I have about
a dozen inits, and FreshStart has this one last.)  I suppose it might
be a conflict among inits, but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas
what might be going on.
