[Xquartz-dev] XQuartz 2.2.0_rc3 (includes spaces fix)

[Merle Reinhart]

Now I see what Jamie was talking about.  The trick was to not move the  
mouse (I had done so to get the cursor active in the new space).

Previously, I had seen the situation you mentioned where the typing  
goes in the previous space xterm until the current space xterm was  
clicked to give it focus.  Now, I tried Martin's "don't move the  
mouse" and it appears that the cursor stays put in the previous space  
so when you click, the click is actually being seen by the previous  
space xterm which causes an auto-switch.
