Windows which return False for -canFocus() or visible() cannot be focused. When this function returns, the -client's focused() state will not be changed yet. This only sends the request -through the X server. You should wait for the hooks.focused hook to fire, and -not assume the client has been focused. - - focus: Optional. If True, the window will be focused. If False, and - focused() is True, it will lose its focus.

See the -Terminology section for a decription and list of common contexts. The button is -a string which defines a modifier and button combination with the format -[Modifier-]...[Button]. Modifiers can be 'mod1', 'mod2', 'mod3', 'mod4', -'mod5', 'control', and 'shift'. The keys on your keyboard that are bound to -each of these modifiers can be found by running 'xmodmap'. The button is the -number of the button. Button numbers can be found by running 'xev', pressing -the button with the pointer over its window, and watching its output. Here -are some examples of valid buttons: 'control-1', '2', 'mod1-shift-5'. The -action is one of the Action_* constants. The func must have a definition -similar to 'def func(ptrdata, client)'. The arguments passed to the function -are a PointerData object and a Client object (or None). A button and context -may be bound to more than one function. - - button: A string defining the modifiers and button to for which events - should be generated. - - context: The context in which the button events should be generated. - - action: One of the Action_* constants specifying the action to bind - the function to. - - func: A function to bind to the button/context. - ----- - -clearBinds() - -Removes all bindings that were previously made by bind(). - ----- - -grab(func) - -Grabs the pointer device, causing all possible pointer events to be sent to -the given function.
