[ESS-bugs] select-window (C-c M-j) doesn't give input focus to target (*R*) [Carbon GNU Emacs]

[Stephen Eglen]

Dear all,

I've committed some code to SVN to fix this bug that David noted.  I
have not yet tested it on XEmacs...  David, are you able to check out
this version from SVN?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
   The latest development version of ESS is available via
`https://svn.R-project.org/ESS/', the ESS Subversion repository.  If
you have a Subversion client (see `http://subversion.tigris.org/'), you
can download the sources using:
     % svn checkout https://svn.r-project.org/ESS/trunk PATH

(Martin: do you have focus-follows-mouse set to t?)

What I have done is to copy the code from gnus-util.el which has a
similar function, and presumably works for both Emacs and XEmacs.
(Although David, if you look closely, gnus-util.el does not test for
mac -- I will send a bug report and cc: you in.)
