[SOLVED] How to return focus to Tilda wo/ mouse?

Currently, it is necessary to LMB-click inside Tilda (or at least drag mouse-cursor over Tilda) to resume typing.

Most desktop managers (GUI's) have a hot key that will switch the focus from window to window. What it is depends upon the GUI, and is configurable to your preference. On my Ubuntu laptop where I am writing this, the Gnome window manager uses alt-tab to switch focus.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Rubberman, are you saying that it is not possible to create keyboard shortcut to give window-focus?

I found something on stackoverflow *, but didn't try it. Presuming it works, can
you also do it (only) with Compiz (yes, I've searched ... a lot)?
