I think this should just say Linux console although I don't really understand where the kernel ends and the operating system begins. Neither do I, but Richard asked me to refer to it as "GNU/Linux console". > The normal `xterm' mouse functionality is still available by holding down > the `SHIFT' key when you press the mouse button. This seems to be true for mouse-1 but: C-mouse-1 gives me the Main Options menu C-mouse-2 gives me the VT Options menu C-mouse-3 gives me the VT Fonts menu S-C-mouse-1, S-C-mouse-2, S-C-mouse-3 give me nothing. I believe that the following patches should finally get it right: ===File ~/xt-mouse.el-diff================================== *** xt-mouse.el 03 Apr 2005 19:34:53 -0500 1.25 --- xt-mouse.el 05 Apr 2005 15:42:18 -0500 *************** *** 156,164 **** With prefix arg, turn XTerm mouse mode on iff arg is positive.
