Package gpm

Package: gpm
Version: 1.10-6
Maintainer: Martin Schulze <joey@infodrom.north.de>
Depends: libc5 (>= 5.4.17-1), ncurses3.0
Description: General Purpose Mouse Interface

This package provides a daemon that listens to the mouse when the console is displayed, and delivers them to applications.

The default when no application is running is to emulate "selection", i.e. allow cut-and-paste with the mouse on the console the same way as under X.

An Emacs lisp file is provided to use the mouse in emacs, when emacs is running on the console.
