Re: [9front] drawterm mouse settings

[hiro <23hiro@gmail.com>]

If I understand correctly this is how the mouse works:

        case MotionNotify:
                me = (XMotionEvent *)e;
                s = me->state;
                ms.xy.x = me->x;
                ms.xy.y = me->y;
                ms.msec = me->time;
                break;
