Opening a window without activating it

Hi,

is it possible to open a window without it automatically becoming active?
I see that there are two different calls to map a window: XMapWindow() and
XMapRaised(). However, both calls open the window and make it active. Can
I change this behaviour? I'd like to open a window and prevent it from
taking away user focus.

Thanks,

Andreas
