<para>The <application><acronym>GPM</acronym></application> (General
|
|
Purpose Mouse daemon) package contains a mouse server for the console
|
|
and <command>xterm</command>. It not only provides cut and paste support
|
|
generally, but its library component is used by various software such as
|
|
<application>Links</application> to provide mouse support to the
|
|
application generally. It is useful on desktops, especially if following
|
|
(Beyond) Linux From Scratch instructions - it's often much easier (and
|
|
less error prone) to cut and paste between two console windows than to
|
|
type everything by hand!</para>
