• w3m mouse support

    Hi, long time since last freebsd installation. I noticed that
    www/w3m is compiled without --enable-mouse, is there any reason
    for that?

    Regards,
    adr.

    "checking if mouse operation enabled... yes" is found in my personal poudriere and at least 1 public build log when i checked. If still not there then it may be a good question for the maintainer. I'm not sure where mouse is and is not supported even with it enabled.

    Yep, indeed:

    $ w3m -version
    w3m version w3m/0.5.5, options lang=en,m17n,image,color,ansi-color,mouse,sysmouse,menu,cookie,ssl,ssl-verify,external-uri-loader,w3mmailer,nntp,gopher,ipv6,alarm,mark

    But w3m mouse support isn't working with xterm or moused, I just assumed that was a compilation issue looking at the port.

    ./configure --help shows only --disable-mouse, so it's ok to suppose mouse support is enable by default.

    I tried with x11/sterm in case it was an xterm issue, but it's the same.
