 ### 4.4. The keyboard focus
 
-There may be many windows on a screen, but only a single keyboard attached to them. How does the X server then know which window should be sent a given keyboard input ? This is done using the keyboard focus. Only a single window on the screen may have the keyboard focus at a given time. There is a XCB function that allows a program to set the keyboard focus to a given window. The user can usually set the keyboard focus using the window manager (often by clicking on the title bar of the desired window). Once our window has the keyboard focus, every key press or key release will cause an event to be sent to our program (if it regsitered for these event types...).

 ### 3. Assigning a Font to a Graphic Context
 
-Once a font is opened, you have to create a Graphic Context that will contain the informations about the color of the foreground and the background used when you draw a text in a Drawable. Here is an exemple of a Graphic Context that will allow us to draw an opened font with a black foreground and a white background:

 # Messing with the mouse cursor
 
-It it possible to modify the shape of the mouse pointer (also called the X pointer) when in certain states, as we often see in programs. For example, a busy application would often display the sand clock over its main window, to give the user a visual hint that he should wait. Let's see how we can change the mouse cursor of our windows.
