Subject: Set keyboard focus at startup to board window
X-Git-Url: http://winboard.nl/cgi-bin?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f6e234db5b6a98d82607c098e94422d64b00f0ff;p=xboard.git

Set keyboard focus at startup to board window

This makes XBoard sensitive to the keybindings also when the cursor is
outside the board window. This focus seems to persist indefinitely: each
time the board window gets selected, the key bindings become activem
wherever the mouse pointer is. Downside: the mouse pointer is no longer
an arrow outside the board window, but becomes a text-insert tool there.
