I ask this question from time to time just in case someone new sees it
and decides to work on it or others might agree that it is a priority.
Other people have raised this over the last few years as well.
The issue is that I would like to raise windows from within a program
(Emacs to be precise), but it doesn't work with the native window
manager running in multiwindow mode.
Emacs has several nice commands for which I have not-so-nice work
arounds (opening and closing windows). These are:
(raise-frame f)
(iconify-frame f)
(decionify-frame f)
(make-frame-visible f)
None of these work with Cygwin X.
Thanks
Gulliver
