* Changes in XEmacs 21.0
========================
-** When the variable focus-follows-mouse is non-nil, it is no longer
-possible for select-frame to permanently select a different frame.
-The frame selection is temporary and is reverted when the current
-command terminates, much like the buffer selected by `set-buffer'.
-In order to effect a permanent focus change in this case, bind
-focus-follows-mouse to nil, select the frame you want, and do a
-(sit-for 0) within the scope of the binding. The function
-other-frame (normally bound to C-x 5 o) is the only command provided
-which does not respect the setting of focus-follows-mouse, and *will*
-allow one to select a different frame even when set non-nil.
