Hi, to disable follow mouse behaviour, simply comment off:

            [EnterNotify] = enternotify,

in definiton of struct handler in dwm.c (or you can this and whole
enternotify() delete). Alternatively, you can define some new toggle in
dwm.c, write some control function for toggling (so you can toggle
follow mouse on/off with keypress) and put something like:

                if(!followMouse)
                        return;

into enternotify();
