236moment, it reacts to clicking with the left mouse button by trying to
237move the text cursor to this position. It does so by generating as many

310This transforms the terminal into a tabbar with additional terminals, that

312displays a ``[NEW]'' button, which, when clicked, will add a new tab, followed by one

316<p>Clicking a button will activate that tab. Pressing <strong>Shift-Left</strong> and

321<p>The tabbar itself can be configured similarly to a normal terminal, but

349This (experimental) perl extension implements OnTheSpot editing. It does
350not work perfectly, and some input methods don't seem to work well with
351OnTheSpot editing in general, but it seems to work at leats for SCIM and
