It would be really cool if I could tap/touch the screen on an Android tablet and ConnectBot would forward this as a "mouse event" (similarly to how e.g. clicking with a "real" mouse e.g. in gnome-terminal works).
This would allow e.g. tapping to change active focused windows or panes in tmux with set-option -g mouse on, make the cursor jump to tapped position in nano after Alt-Mor with set mouse in .nanorc, with mc, etc.
If this should already be working, could I just be stupid to find the require setting in ConnectBot? It's not working for me, using "1.9.6-oss" (from F-Droid), connecting to a host where this works when I'm connecting with gnome-terminal (so I'm not just missing gpm on that host, or something like that).
I did find old issue #225 / PR #267, but was that about tap/touch the Android screen, or a "real" mouse?
This issue is specifically and only about tap/touch, not actually using a physical mouse connected to Android (which I didn't even realize that was a thing on Android, but reading past issues such as #104 and #232 and #431 gather that it is).
