I am using DWM-6.0 on my FreeBSD 9.0 box. Somtimes when i am inputting
something in a floating window, it will lose focus automatically.
Then i have to press MODKEY+XK_j/XK_k to switch back. The following is my
config.h

static const char font[] = "-wenquanyi-wenquanyi bitmap
song-medium-r-normal--12-130-75-75-p-80-iso10646-1";

Any suggestion is appreciated!
