Thanks. However, it looks like there's a small misunderstanding here. I didn't mean mouse selections, I meant mouse highlight when the mouse pointer hovers above mouse-sensitive text. We have such highlight in Info, for example, where moving pointer above menu items and cross-references changes the mouse cursor and highlights the mouse-sensitive portion of the text. You can have this in any buffer by evaluating the following expression: (put-text-property N M 'mouse-face 'highlight) for two buffer positions N and M. Moving the mouse above the specified portion of text will make the text stand out. Suppose we have several TTY devices open in the same Emacs session. Can GPM support mouse highlight on more than a single device in such a session?
Isn't it Emacs that records and paints hightlights in this case? GPM only supplies the coordinates and the Emacs decides to highlight. If it is so, then GPM has no problem supporting many terminals.
2) If the answer to the previous question is NO, then should we add the mouse-highlight related variables to struct tty_display_info on Unix as well?Sounds like the right thing to do to me.Is this also true for the mouse highlight I described above?
Yes, I think so. Jan D.
