focus command 8.5b3 X11

hi

quoted from online manual:
"When an internal window receives the input focus, Tk doesn't actually
set the X focus to that window; as far as X is concerned, the focus will
stay on the top-level window containing the window with the focus.
However, Tk generates FocusIn and FocusOut events just as if the X focus
were on the internal window. This approach gets around a number of
problems that would occur if the X focus were actually moved; the fact
that the X focus is on the top-level is invisible unless you use C code
to query the X server directly."

does someone have an example of how to query the X server to get the
simulate focus command ?

best regards
