It's funny to see how we use this stuff in different ways. I
constantly nudge the pointer to a covered window (partially covered, I
can see the first few columns) to type a command or answer a prompt
without raising the window. I use FvwmAuto with a 4-second delay, so
if I really need to see the entire window I can just leave the pointer
there and it'll pop up.
