How does one control focus in epoch? I haven't found anything helpful
in the manual yet. If it's there, please let me know. If it's not, can
someone help? I'm relatively new to epoch.

Window manager is twm, X is R5. Focus normally follows the pointer
from X window to X window. When I launch epoch, it also starts out
that way.

As I move from screen to screen, focus initially follows the pointer.
Eventually, epoch fails to move the focus to the screen that contains
the pointer.  Instead, focus remains on the last screen that I clicked
in. I have to click to move the focus to a different screen. It stays
this way until I quit epoch.

I don't know if the change in focus policy occurs due to a bug, upon
some even, or what. I don't do anything in particular that I've been
able to associate with the change in behavior.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
