Hi,
I've updated Anatoly's patch from 2005 that adds mouse tracking using
slang/ncurses to mutt. With "set mouse" (unset by default) mutt will
react to button1/2/3/wheel with configurable bindings. I like it :)
I've tested it with Debian's ncurses which unfortunately doesn't
support the mouse wheel (yet), but I think it should work. slang is
untested. Testers welcome.
It would be nice if the patch could be considered for mutt 2.0.
(More comments below.)

Add mouse ncurses/slang mouse tracking capability, set mouse=yes to enable.
Based on a patch by Anatoly Vorobey.

Mouse support is now a config option. I didn't add a configure flag as
I don't think having it built-in but disabled by default hurts.

Untested.

Wheel mouse should work with a ncurses compiled with --ext-mouse
(requires ABI/SONAME bump for libncurses).

Left button will jump to/select a line in all menus. Right button is
bound to "exit" in menus/pager and "quit" in the index.

Should be done by macros (bind index WheelUp next-page or macro ...

xterm uses Shift+Mouse for selection handling as with disabled mouse
tracking; probably not possible/desirable to work around.

While gpm support could be a nice feature, I don't think it is needed.
