using 4/29 build of apprunner on windows. 1) launch apprunner 2) launch editor from task menu 3) immediately pull down Edit | Select All or even do a Ctrl-A nothing happens. you first have to click somewhere in the document and give it focus before doing select all operation. then it works fine. there is a slight chance this bug might be a DUP, but I'm filing it anyway cause I don't remember if I filed this specifically for the focus issue.

This is really a SetFocus call which needs to be done whenever the editor is brought up. Assigning to Charlie, milestone set to M6

I'll take this for now, but please don't file any more bugs if the cause is really "we don't set focus to the editor when the editor starts".

This turned out to be easy to do, so we fixed it for M6 Note that the initial focus is set (you can start typing, for example), but you will not see the caret - that is a separate problem that won't be solved until the general focus handling problem is fixed (XPFE guys and mjudge in editor group are working on this.)

verified in 5/24 build.
