Hey'all-

	I'm trying to do the following:

	I need to have my application pop up a shell, which the user
can interact with.  If the user clicks in this shell (which has other
widgets in it), I want these events to be processed normally.
	If the user clicks anywhere outside this shell, I need to catch this,
so that my application can hide the popup shell.  Clicks outside the
popup shell should not be processed except by my application.

	I need keyboard input to be enabled so that the user can type into
a text field on my application which is NOT on the popup shell.

	So far I have attempted the following: 	
	I do an XtGrabPointer, and I add event handlers on my application
to catch all relevant events (ButtonPress, ButtonRelease, ButtonMotion).
In the event handler, I do an XQueryPointer, and find out where the
pointer is.  If it is in the shell, I use XSendEvent to forward the event
to the appropriate subwindow of the shell.
  If the click occurs outside the shell, I hide the shell, and do an
XUngrabPointer.

My problem?  It doesn't work.  The events that I send with XSendEvent
aren't getting to their appropriate widgets.  Note that I am calling
XSendEvent while I have the pointer grab. I am sending them to the
window returned in the "child_return" argument to XQueryPointer.

Can anyone help?  

Thanks very much-
