[gpm] Binding commands to key presses

[thomas-gpm@lifesok.co.uk]

Thanks for the link. This is exactly what I want except that
I need it to work with a serial mouse, not USB.
If I can't get a serial version working I'll try the USB option
but I'd have to buy a USB mouse and hub. I already have a bag
of old serial mice.

thanks
Thomas
