Thanks, it does help. Looking at vim's sources, I see that it does all
the xterm mouse processing by itself, simply never using the ncurses
mouse interface. It also supports GPM on Linux, and a bunch of other
interfaces on other OSes, if available, and a special interface between
itself and its own frontend when compiled in the GUI mode (almost, but
not quite and in an incompatible way, identical to the xterm interface).
It's, erm, huge.
