I just noticed that in the lisp directory of our 18.50 GNU Emacs, there is a
file called:
sup-mouse.el writtemn by Author: Wolfgang Rupprecht
which is supposed providing:
Contents: supdup mouse support for lisp machines
Unfortunately, there is no documemtation to make it work... I guess that at
least, we have to bind the function SUP-MOUSE-REPORT to the ESC: key. Where is
this done? Do I need to configure something on the Lisp Machine (which does not
seem apriori to send any esc sequence...). BTW I am running Genera 7.2.
Thanks in advance for any hints.

I think I can give a few hints ;-) The package was written for the LMI Lambda Lisp Machine. The standard supdup code needed one small (~10 line) patch to make the gnu mouse work. As I recall, internal to supdup, a mouse hit was encoded as a lisp list (of 3 integers???) sent down a stream. One of the last things to happen to the stream before being sent to the network code was to strip all of the lisp lists out of it and discard them. What the patch did was to convert the lisp list to an ascii escape sequence that was then sent down the network connection. The only other hooks one had to put into gnuemacs to make this work was a key binding of "\e:" for sup-mouse-report and an autoload for it. Sorry. I don't have a copy of the supdup patches anymore. Those were left behind when I left LMI. -wolfgang Wolfgang Rupprecht ARPA: wolfgang@mgm.mit.edu (IP 18.82.0.114) TEL: (617) 267-4365 UUCP: mit-eddie!mgm.mit.edu!wolfgang
