25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; This module provides multi-click mouse support for GNU Emacs versions
28 ;; 19.18 and later. I've tried to make it behave more like standard X
29 ;; clients (eg. xterm) than the default Emacs 19 mouse selection handlers.
30 ;; Basically:
32 ;; * Clicking mouse-1 starts (cancels) selection, dragging extends it.
34 ;; * Clicking or dragging mouse-3 extends the selection as well.
36 ;; * Double-clicking on word constituents selects words.
37 ;; Double-clicking on symbol constituents selects symbols.
38 ;; Double-clicking on quotes or parentheses selects sexps.
39 ;; Double-clicking on whitespace selects whitespace.
40 ;; Triple-clicking selects lines.
41 ;; Quad-clicking selects paragraphs.
43 ;; * Selecting sets the region & X primary selection, but does NOT affect
44 ;; the kill-ring. Because the mouse handlers set the primary selection
45 ;; directly, mouse-sel sets the variables interprogram-cut-function
46 ;; and interprogram-paste-function to nil.
48 ;; * Clicking mouse-2 inserts the contents of the primary selection at
49 ;; the mouse position (or point, if mouse-yank-at-point is non-nil).
51 ;; * Pressing mouse-2 while selecting or extending copies selection
52 ;; to the kill ring. Pressing mouse-1 or mouse-3 kills it.
54 ;; * Double-clicking mouse-3 also kills selection.
56 ;; * M-mouse-1, M-mouse-2 & M-mouse-3 work similarly to mouse-1, mouse-2
57 ;; & mouse-3, but operate on the X secondary selection rather than the
58 ;; primary selection and region.
60 ;; This module requires my thingatpt.el module, which it uses to find the
61 ;; bounds of words, lines, sexps, etc.
63 ;; Thanks to KevinB@bartley.demon.co.uk for his useful input.
65 ;;--- Customisation -------------------------------------------------------
67 ;; * You may want to use none or more of following:
69 ;; ;; Enable region highlight
70 ;; (transient-mark-mode 1)
72 ;; ;; But only in the selected window
73 ;; (setq highlight-nonselected-windows nil)
75 ;; ;; Enable pending-delete
76 ;; (delete-selection-mode 1)
78 ;; * You can control the way mouse-sel binds its keys by setting the value
79 ;; of mouse-sel-default-bindings before loading mouse-sel.
81 ;; (a) If mouse-sel-default-bindings = t (the default)
83 ;; Mouse sets and insert selection
84 ;; mouse-1 mouse-select
85 ;; mouse-2 mouse-insert-selection
86 ;; mouse-3 mouse-extend
88 ;; Selection/kill-ring interaction is disabled
89 ;; interprogram-cut-function = nil
90 ;; interprogram-paste-function = nil
92 ;; (b) If mouse-sel-default-bindings = 'interprogram-cut-paste
94 ;; Mouse sets selection, and pastes from kill-ring
95 ;; mouse-1 mouse-select
96 ;; mouse-2 mouse-yank-at-click
97 ;; mouse-3 mouse-extend
99 ;; Selection/kill-ring interaction is retained
100 ;; interprogram-cut-function = x-select-text
101 ;; interprogram-paste-function = x-cut-buffer-or-selection-value
103 ;; What you lose is the ability to select some text in
104 ;; delete-selection-mode and yank over the top of it.
106 ;; (c) If mouse-sel-default-bindings = nil, no bindings are made.
108 ;; * By default, mouse-insert-selection (mouse-2) inserts the selection at
109 ;; the mouse position. You can tell it to insert at point instead with:
111 ;; (setq mouse-yank-at-point t)
113 ;; * I like to leave point at the end of the region nearest to where the
114 ;; mouse was, even though this makes region highlighting mis-leading (the
115 ;; cursor makes it look like one extra character is selected). You can
116 ;; disable this behaviour with:
118 ;; (setq mouse-sel-leave-point-near-mouse nil)
120 ;; * By default, mouse-select cycles the click count after 4 clicks. That
121 ;; is, clicking mouse-1 five times has the same effect as clicking it
122 ;; once, clicking six times has the same effect as clicking twice, etc.
123 ;; Disable this behaviour with:
125 ;; (setq mouse-sel-cycle-clicks nil)
127 ;; * The variables mouse-sel-{set,get}-selection-function control how the
128 ;; selection is handled. Under X Windows, these variables default so
129 ;; that the X primary selection is used. Under other windowing systems,
130 ;; alternate functions are used, which simply store the selection value
131 ;; in a variable.
133 ;; * You can change the selection highlight face by altering the properties
134 ;; of mouse-drag-overlay, eg.
136 ;; (overlay-put mouse-drag-overlay 'face 'bold)
