I just checked in the changes adding the `mouse-highlight' variable. If its value is t, the first (old) behaviour is used. If its value is an integer, the second (new) behaviour is used [the default] If its value is nil, mouse highlight is disabled (replacing the existing disable_mouse_highlight variable (available in C/gdb only)). The changes cover the X, w32 and msdos ports. -- Kim F.
