1961 | Changes all mouse reporting codes to use decimal parameters instead of |
|
|
1962 | octets or characters. |
|
|
1963 | |
|
|
1964 | This mode should be enabled I<before> actually enabling mouse reporting, |
|
|
1965 | for semi-obvious reasons. |
|
|
1966 | |
|
|
1967 | The sequences received for various modes are as follows: |
|
|
1968 | |
|
|
1969 | ESC [ M o o o !1005, !1015 (three octets) |
|
|
1970 | ESC [ M c c c 1005, !1015 (three characters) |
|
|
1971 | ESC [ Pm M 1015 (three or more numeric parameters) |
|
|
1972 | |
|
|
1973 | The first three parameters are C<code>, C<x> and C<y>. Code is the numeric |
|
|
1974 | code as for the other modes (but encoded as a decimal number, including |
|
|
1975 | the additional offset of 32, so you have to subtract 32 first), C<x> and |
|
|
1976 | C<y> are the coordinates (1|1 is the upper left corner, just as with |
|
|
1977 | cursor positioning). |
|
|
1978 | |
|
|
1979 | Example: Shift-Button-1 press at top row, column 80. |
|
|
1980 | |
|
|
1981 | ESC [ 37 ; 80 ; 1 M |
|
|
1982 | |
|
|
1983 | One can use this feature by simply enabling it and then looking for |
|
|
1984 | parameters to the C<ESC [ M> reply - if there are any, this mode is |
|
|
1985 | active, otherwise one of the old reporting styles is used. |
|
|
1986 | |
|
|
1987 | Other (to be implemented) reply sequences will use a similar encoding. |
|
|
1988 | |
|
|
1989 | In the future, more parameters might get added (pixel coordinates for |
|
|
1990 | example - anybody out there who needs this?). |
