Just a heads up, in 2025 the mouse and trackpad work incredibly well with TUI applications. There are days I think the mouse works even better than with GUI applications because it tends to be easier to select any text on the screen than with a GUI. To be clear, I love both (TUI & GUI), but when I started integrating the mouse more into my terminal workflow, I was shocked at how well it worked.
- hollerith 1y agoCan you move point to a position by clicking that position with a pointing device? Also, when you've selected some text with the pointing device, does Emacs sense the selection? I.e., does (list (region-beginning) (region-end)) return the start and end of the selection?
- robenkleene 1y agoYes and yes, I don't think there are any mouse issues I've had working with Emacs in the terminal (whereas there are tons of bindings issues).
- hollerith 1y agoI had no idea! Wow.
