Oh, I see.  I'm not terribly inclined to change that.
Drawterm has used those keys for longer than there
has been OS X support and many people have that
muscle memory well trained.  It is also consistent
with plan9port.  I think that it's consistent with what
Plan 9 used to do too, but I might be misremembering.
(It looks like now there is a dedicated key for each button.)
