;;; Commentary:
;; This package provides access to mouse event as reported by the gpm-Linux
;; package. It tries to reproduce the functionality offered by Emacs under X.
;; The "gpm" server runs under Linux, so this package is rather
;; Linux-dependent.
;; The file, t-mouse.el was originally written by Alessandro Rubini and Ian T
;; Zimmerman, and Emacs communicated with gpm through a client program called
;; mev. Now the interface with gpm is directly through a Unix socket, so this
;; file is reduced to a single minor mode macro call.
;;
;;; Code:
;; Prevent warning when compiling in an Emacs without gpm support.

This allows the use of the mouse when operating on a GNU/Linux console,

It relies on the `gpm' daemon being activated."
