When I use a window manager key binding to iconify an Epoch screen, Epoch doesn't seem to notice that this has happened. As a consequence, the focus (current buffer) stays with the buffer whose screen I just iconified, rather than switching to the one which is now beneath the mouse. I have to use switch-screen (C-z o) to manually recapture the focus (or, I can move the mouse out of the window and back in). If I use C-z i to iconify the screen, Epoch behaves correctly. However, my fingers are already trained to use the Motif window manager key binding which I've become used to. Is there a hook or something which I can use to switch the current screen to the one under the mouse after an iconify event? Any suggestions would be a big help! Thanks.
