NAME
       input-linux-mouse : Direct mouse input

SYNOPSIS
       input-linux-mouse: [<mousetype>] [,<file>] [,[b<bauds>][r<rts>][d<dtr>]]

DESCRIPTION
       This input opens a file (usually a device file or pipe) and reads mouse
       protocol data from it.

OPTIONS
       mousetype
	      Indicates what type of mouse is attached.	 The  following	 types
	      are supported:

	      ·	  ms, Microsoft : Two button Microsoft compatible mice.

	      ·	  ms3,	IntelliMouse,  mman+ : Serial Intellimouse or compati‐
		  ble. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech Mouse‐
		  Man+.

	      ·	  MouseSystems,	 msc  :	 MouseSystems compatible (used in most
		  3-button mice).

	      ·	  Logitech, logi :  Used in older Logitech serial mice.

	      ·	  mm, MMSeries :    MM series mice.

	      ·	  Sun : Sun mice. The protocol is the same as  'msc'  protocol
		  except it used only 3 bytes per packet.

	      ·	  MouseMan, mman :  MouseMan protocol.

	      ·	  BusMouse, bm : Non-PS/2 busmice.

	      ·	  LinuxUSB,  lnxusb : IMPS2 that doesn't choke on USB (no init
		  attempted).

	      ·	  ps2, PS/2 : PS/2 mice (most non-serial mice use this	proto‐
		  col)

	      ·	  imps2,  IMPS/2  : PS/2 IntelliMouse and compatible (not USB,
		  see lnxusb for that.)

	      ·	  mmanps2, MouseManPlusPS/2 : PS/2 Logitech MouseMan+ and com‐
		  patible.

	      Most  of	the strings supported by GPM, SVGAlib and XFree can be
	      specified.  If you find one that isn't, please report.

	      The  special  value  auto	 tells	 input-linux-mouse   to	  read
	      ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse,	     and      if      that	fails,
	      $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse.  If none of the two files are
	      found,  input-linux-mouse tries to auto-detect the mouse, and as
	      a	 last  resort  uses  the  mouse	  information	specified   in
	      /etc/vga/libvga.config.

       file   The   file  to  read  mouse  protocol  data  from;  defaults  to
	      /dev/mouse.

       baud   Baud rate of mouse device.

       rts    Turns off RTS if set to 0; turns RTS  on	if  set	 to  a	number
	      greater than 0.

       dtr    Turns  off  DTR  if  set	to  0; turns DTR on if set to a number
	      greater than 0.

FEATURES
       ·   Generates evPtr* events.

FILES
       ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse and $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse consists
       of the following entries:

       mouse mousetype
       mdev file

       where  mousetype	 and  file  has	 the  same semantics as the invocation
       options of the same names.
