class of mouse events has been made visible in a window, +calling the \fB\%wgetch\fP function on that window may return +\fB\%KEY_MOUSE\fP as an indicator that a mouse event has been queued. +To read the event data and pop the event off the queue, call +\fB\%getmouse\fP. +This function will return \fBOK\fP if a mouse event +is actually visible in the given window, \fBERR\fP otherwise. +When \fB\%getmouse\fP returns \fBOK\fP, the data deposited as y and +x in the event structure coordinates will be screen-relative character-cell +coordinates. +The returned state mask will have exactly one bit set to +indicate the event type. +The corresponding data in the queue is marked invalid. +A subsequent call to \fB\%getmouse\fP will retrieve the next older +item from the queue. +.SS ungetmouse +The \fB\%ungetmouse\fP function behaves analogously to \fB\%ungetch\fP. +It pushes +a \fB\%KEY_MOUSE\fP event onto the input queue, and associates with that event +the given state data and screen-relative character-cell coordinates. +.SS wenclose +The \fB\%wenclose\fP function tests whether a given pair of screen-relative +character-cell coordinates is enclosed by a given window, returning \fBTRUE\fP +if it is and \fBFALSE\fP otherwise. +It is useful for determining what subset of +the screen windows enclose the location of a mouse event. +.PP +If the parameter is a pad, +\fB\%wenclose\fP uses the most recent screen coordinates used for +this pad in +\fP\%prefresh\fP(3X) or +\fP\%pnoutrefresh\fP(3X). +.SS wmouse_trafo +The \fB\%wmouse_trafo\fP function transforms a given pair of coordinates +from \fB\%stdscr\fP-relative coordinates +to coordinates relative to the given window or vice versa. +The resulting \fB\%stdscr\fP-relative coordinates are not always +identical to screen coordinates due to the mechanism to reserve +lines on top or bottom of the screen for other purposes +(see the \fB\%ripoffline\fP and \fB\%slk_init\fP(3X) calls, for example). +.bP +If the parameter \fIto_screen\fP is \fBTRUE\fP, the pointers +\fIpY, pX\fP must reference the coordinates of a location +inside the window \fIwin\fP. +They are converted to \fB\%stdscr\fP-relative coordinates and returned +through the pointers. +If the conversion was successful, the function returns \fBTRUE\fP. +.IP +If one of the parameters was \fBNULL\fP or the location is +not inside the window, \fBFALSE\fP is returned. +.bP +If \fIto_screen\fP is +\fBFALSE\fP, the pointers \fIpY, pX\fP must reference +\fB\%stdscr\fP-relative coordinates. +They are converted to window-relative coordinates if the +window \fIwin\fP encloses this point. +In this case the function returns \fBTRUE\fP. +.IP +If one of the parameters is \fBNULL\fP or the point is not inside the +window, \fBFALSE\fP is returned. +.PP +The referenced coordinates +are only replaced by the converted coordinates if the transformation was +successful. +.SS mouse_trafo +The \fB\%mouse_trafo\fP function performs the same translation +as \fB\%wmouse_trafo\fP, +using \fB\%stdscr\fP for \fIwin\fP. +.SS mouseinterval +The \fB\%mouseinterval\fP function sets the maximum time +(in thousands of a second) +that can elapse between press and release events for them to +be resolved as a click. +.PP +Calling \fB\%mouseinterval(0)\fP disables click resolution. +When ncurses detects a mouse event, +it awaits further input activity up to this interval, +and then checks for a subsequent mouse event which can be combined +with the first event. +If the timeout expires without input activity +(which would happen with a zero interval), +then no click resolution will occur. +.PP +This function returns the previous interval value. +Use \fB\%mouseinterval(\-1)\fP to obtain the interval without altering it. +.PP +The mouse interval is set to one sixth of a second +when the corresponding screen is initialized, +e.g., in \fBinitscr\fP(3X) or \fBsetupterm\fP(3X). +.SS has_mouse +The \fB\%has_mouse\fP function returns \fBTRUE\fP if the mouse driver +has been successfully initialized, +and \fBFALSE\fP otherwise. +.PP +Mouse events are ignored when input is in cooked mode, and +cause an error beep when cooked mode is being simulated in a window by a +function such as \fB\%getstr\fP that expects a linefeed for input-loop +termination. +.SH RETURN VALUE +\fB\%has_mouse\fP, +\fB\%wenclose\fP, +\fB\%mouse_trafo\fP, +and +\fB\%wmouse_trafo\fP +return \fBTRUE\fP or \fBFALSE\fP as noted above. +.PP +\fB\%getmouse\fP and \fB\%ungetmouse\fP +return \fBERR\fP upon failure and \fBOK\fP upon success. +.PP +\fB\%getmouse\fP fails if: +.bP +no mouse driver was initialized, +.bP +the mask of reportable events is zero, +.bP +a mouse event was detected that does not match the mask, +.bP +or if no more events remain in the queue. +.PP +\fB\%ungetmouse\fP returns an error if the event queue is full. +.PP +\fB\%mousemask\fP +returns the mask of reportable events. +.PP +\fB\%mouseinterval\fP +returns the previous interval value, unless +the terminal was not initialized. +In that case, it returns the maximum interval value (166). +.SH NOTES +The order of the \fB\%MEVENT\fP structure members is not guaranteed. +Additional fields may be added to the structure in the future. +.PP +Under +.I \%ncurses, +these calls are implemented using either +.IR \%xterm 's +built-in mouse-tracking API or +platform-specific drivers including +.RS 3 +.bP +Alessandro Rubini's gpm server +.bP +FreeBSD sysmouse +.bP +OS/2 EMX +.RE +.PP +If you are using an unsupported configuration, +mouse events will not be visible to +\fI\%ncurses\fP (and the \fB\%mousemask\fP function will always +return \fB0\fP). +.PP +If the +.I \%term\%info +entry contains a \fBXM\fP string, +this is used in the +.I \%xterm +mouse driver to control the +way the terminal is initialized for mouse operation. +The default, if \fBXM\fP is not found, +corresponds to private mode 1000 of +.I \%xterm: +.PP +.RS 3 +\eE[?1000%?%p1%{1}%=%th%el%; +.RE +.PP +The mouse driver also recognizes a newer +.I \%xterm +private mode 1006, +e.g., +.PP +.RS 3 +\eE[?1006;1000%?%p1%{1}%=%th%el%; +.RE +.PP +The \fIz\fP member in the event structure is not presently used. +It is intended +for use with touch screens (which may be pressure-sensitive) or with +3D-mice/trackballs/power gloves. +.PP +The \fB\%ALL_MOUSE_EVENTS\fP class does not +include \fB\%REPORT_MOUSE_POSITION\fP. +They are distinct. +For example, +in +.I \%xterm, +wheel/scrolling mice send position reports as a sequence of +presses of buttons 4 or 5 without matching button-releases. +.SH EXTENSIONS +These functions were designed for +\fB\%ncurses\fP(3X), +and are not found in SVr4 +.IR curses , +4.4BSD +.IR curses , +or any other previous curses implementation. +(SVr4 +.I curses +did have a +.I \%getmouse +function, +which took no argument and returned a different type.) +.SH PORTABILITY +Applications employing the +.I \%ncurses +mouse extension should condition its use on the visibility of the +.B \%NCURSES_MOUSE_VERSION +preprocessor macro. +When the interface changes, +the macro's value increments. +Multiple versions are available when +.I \%ncurses +is configured; +see section \*(``ALTERNATE CONFIGURATIONS\*('' of \fB\%ncurses\fP(3X). +The following values may be specified. +.RS 3 +.TP 3 +1 +has definitions for reserved events. +The mask uses 28 bits. +.TP 3 +2 +adds definitions for button 5, +removes the definitions for reserved events. +The mask uses 29 bits. +.RE +.PP +SVr4 +.I curses +had support for the mouse in a variant of \fI\%xterm\fP(1). +It is mentioned in a few places, +with little supporting documentation. +.bP +Its \*(``libcurses\*('' manual page lists functions for this
