How can I tell Emacs to ignore all touchpad events? I guess they are registering as mouse events? I don't use mouse much in Emacs, barely at all, so I oculd live without mouse completely. Or can I turn it off per process in the os (windows)? I can't turn the touchpad of in the system entirely, it is my wife's and I am just borrowing it sometimes :).
