Sloppy Focus Tricks

Are you a Unix geek who has been seduced by Mac OS X?
Are you totally frustrated with the lack of ‘sloppy focus’?
Here’s some tricks to do, depending on what you want to do:

  • for just Terminal windows:
     %  defaults write com.apple.Terminal FocusFollowsMouse -string YES
    
  • for X11 windows:
     % defaults write com.apple.x11 wm_ffm true
    
  • for most other Mac apps:
    use Codetek Virtual Desktop
