implemented mouse support via special ^KMOUSE and <EJ> with negative keys
* You need to set 0,64ED to enable mouse processing in Curses. It is always enabled in Gtk as it should never make the experience worse. sample.teco_ini enables mouse support, since this should be the new default. `sciteco --no-profile` won't have it enabled, though. * On curses, it requires the ncurses mouse protocol version 2, which will also be supported by PDCurses. * Similar to the Curses API, a special key macro ^KMOUSE is inserted if any of the supported mouse events has been detected. * You can then use -EJ to get the type of mouse event, which can be used with a computed goto in the command-line editing macro. Alternatively, this could have been solved with separate ^KMOUSE:PRESSED, ^KMOUSE:RELEASED etc. pseudo-key macros. * The default ^KMOUSE implementation in fnkeys.tes supports the following: * Left click: Edit command line to jump to position. * Ctrl+left click: Jump to beginning of line. * Right click: Insert position or position range (when dragging). * Double right click: insert range for word under cursor * Ctrl+right click: Insert beginning of line * Scroll wheel: scrolls (faster with shift) * Ctrl+scroll wheel: zoom (GTK-only) * Currently, there is no visual feedback when "selecting" ranges via right-click+drag. This would be tricky to do and most terminal emulators do not appear to support continuous mouse updates.

In fact, all keys with printable representation and control keys can be remapped using
key macros - and they can be context-sensitive as well!
+* Scriptable mouse support via the key macro mechanism (see also `fnkeys.tes`)
* Many TECO-11 features, like that most commands have a colon-modified form, string-building
characters, exotic match characters...
