Hi Everyone
I have download the source but I couldn't find examples in the tarball.
Could anyone share C API examples you might have kicking around ?
So it doesn't look like gpm is software that people are getting really
excited about but I am !
It's previous use as a sort of partner to ncurses that will allow for
mouse equipped TUI may not be generating a whole lot of excitement on
the desktop but what about all of these new single board computers like
BeagleBone and Raspberry PI !
With some touch screen displays providing mouse input without mice there
is potential for new hardware to capitalize on it and being able to run
without X would have large savings on some devices.
I don't understand the codebase yet but I would like to add support for
rows and columns beyond 231 along the way.
I have a prototype assisted speech application written. I would like to
improve it and I would like to be able to run it without X.
Anyhow.... my name is Patrick and I may be your new gpm fanboy !
