========================================================================
really sure. Anyone got any thoughts on the matter? For those who are unaware,
a single click positions the cursor, a double click selects the word under
the cursor, and a triple click selects the whole line (a fourth click would
select the whole object, but since I haven't finished my multiline text
field widgets yet, that's a bit of a moot point).
========================================================================
Ahh! Quadruple clicks. Set second parameter of evnt_multi() to 0x0104
and make the mouse click speed SLOW with the control panel. GEM can
do it (I was able to get triple clicks when I used 0x0103 with my code),
but I'm afriad that triple clicking is hard. I prefer drag-selection
to triple clicking, and I think that may be more GEM-Like.
I think that the use of X Selection guidlines should be in apps-defs.
*:XSelect:No
Or maybe something like :
*.*.Xselect.No
*.WordProcessor.*.Xselect.Yes
Personally, I can't triple click very well on an atari mouse, at least
not at the speed settings I use (3 or 4 - really fast).
