I use WT with FAR 100% times
when start some EXE's file under far manager (twiced click L-button mouse - only this!)
cursor board by Far Manager starting moving with mouse movement
the effect does not stop until you click L-button mouse.
### Expected Behavior
Cursor board by Far Manager not move with mouse movement
### Actual Behavior
100% reproduced on some EXE's ( with 90% console app?)
for examples:
Windows\System32\
with effects:
console app:
certutil.exe
change.exe
gui app:
appverif.exe
certreq.exe
console app without effects:
ARP.EXE
at.exe
i also check 8year ago Far Manager Far30b3900.x86
trouble still present too
PS:
i use windows 27 year
far manager 25 year
conemu 12 year
but never see this effects earlier...
WT I try use ~week ( why not early? because i dont like UWP apps)
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the stuck mouse behavior with the listed Windows Terminal versions, Far Manager, and the example executables. Then trace the terminal's mouse-mode handling; done means launching the affected applications no longer leaves Far Manager's cursor moving after mouse input ends.
