I'm trying to write a menu program that can be launched from the command line and take up the entire screen. Thus far I've been successful with the exception of two problems. The X cursor floats irritatingly in the center of the screen and the focus isn't on the window. This is for an arcade cabinet, so this Tk app needs to grab the focus immedieatly without user intervention. The X11 modules look promising, but I've been unable to figure out how to use them to solve the aforementioned problems. Thoughts?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
