My idea is to address those shortcomings. You are right xt-mouse does not work correctly with cvs emacs. I now remember that i have send a mail regarding this to emacs-devel but got no answer. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2004-07/msg00527.html Seems only few people need this :) and i have had no time so far to take a closer look and find what is wrong. I think the way mouse event are used was changed and xt-mouse "just" needs to be adapted.. > I don't think this mode works on a text-only terminal. This file also says: > > ;; The xterm mouse escape codes are supposedly also supported by the > ;; Linux console, but I have not been able to verify this. > > I can't see how this can work outside the context of X. Well, right now all i can say is that i'm pretty sure i used xt-mouse with gpm on the console and it worked.. -- Stephan Stahl
