I am having a slight problem with an Xview application I'm trying

to hack. A simple shelltool. With a "Stuff" item in the menu. Here

is what I have so far.

	If I create a TTY, I can get the MENU and insert the item, BUT!,

the keyboard focus will not follow the mouse into the TTY. It WILL

follow the mouse OUT! but not IN! I cannot get it to work without having

to click to type.  My openwindow environment is set up for followmouse

keyboardfocus model. 

	If, on the other hand, I create a TERMSW instead of a TTY, the

keyboard focus works perfectly normal without the slightest problem,

HOWEVER!, there is now a slight problem concerning the MENU.

	Even with the TERMSW_MODE set to TTYSW_MODE_TYPE( to disable

scrolling..this is supposed to be a shelltool not a cmdtool), the MENU

I get with xv_get(tty, WIN_MENU, NULL) is the TERMSW_MODE_TYPE MENU, NOT

the TTYSW_MODE MENU. 


	So I need the answers to the following...

1)	How to get the input focus into a TTY without click to type.

and/OR

2)	How to get the TTYSW_MODE MENU for a TERMSW and not the

	TERMSW_MODE MENU.


	If you can help me I would be eternaly (well momentarily)

in your debt.

Kev!
