Package: gpm (1.19.6-25)

General Purpose Mouse Interface

This package provides a daemon that captures mouse events when the system console is active, and delivers events to applications through a library.

The default when no application is running is to emulate "selection", that is, to allow cut-and-paste with the mouse on the console the same way as it is done under X.
