Licensing again... :) They probably could invent an API for an external mouse plugins, which will then also include the gpm's GPLed plugin that the GPLed projects could use.

Furthermore, I worry if this works at all: what if gpm will read data from /dev/input/mice concurrently with SDL? But I took the code of SDL-2 branch, and it seems they have dropped all the console mouse support, and instead are using directfb API. Does this solve the gpm compatibility problem is what I don't know. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Java SE, Java EE, Eclipse, Spring, Hibernate, JavaScript, jQuery and much more.
