I took a look at the osd and skin code to see mouse if support is
possible. It looks as though this could be done without breaking the
existing input model by adding one or two functions to the skin code
(like querying the defined areas on the screen, their location, and
their type), modifying the callback in osd.py that the rc.py keyboard
class uses to poll for keyboard events, and adding either another class
to rc.py for mouse input or an external plugin like the existing
joystick plugin. Freevo already handles simple mouse events but doesn't
do anything with them other than to show the mouse pointer then hide it
a second later. If you're determined enough and if done properly this
could be done without breaking the rest of the framework that is already
built into freevo. I would be willing to help but this would be too much
to handle on my own as it would affect to many portions of freevo at
once.
