Bringing an Xterm window to top
Hi,
Is there a way to configure a Linux machine so that I can click on any where on the Xterm window to bring it to the front/top. By default, I have to click on the title bar but often the entire title bar is underneath another window.
Thanks in advance!
PS. GNU/Linux
