Hi all :) I use console Vim, and I would like to use the mouse to position the cursor into the Vim window, but *only for that*. I want the terminal emulator control the right click even when using Vim. I'm using Vim under Linux, with "set ttymouse=xterm2", BTW.
I thought that doing "set mouse=a", "set mousemodel=popup" and NOT LOADING any menu (so the right click popup won't pop up any menu) the terminal would catch the right click. But no, Vim uses an "all-or-nothing" approach, just like any other console application I know of. Probably is a limitation of the terminal emulator (I've never written a program supporting mouse on terminal under Linux, so..). Well, adding up, what I want is to position the cursor using left click but leave right click to the terminal emulator (so it shows the terminal emulator popup menu); what I have is that Vim catches the right click too. Can this be changed? Thanks a lot in advance :) Raúl "DervishD" Núñez de Arenas Coronado -- Linux Registered User 88736 | http://www.dervishd.net It's my PC and I'll cry if I want to... RAmen!
