+\chapter{The GPM unit}
+
+\section{Introduction}
+The \file{GPM} unit implements an interface to file{libgpm}, the console
+program for mouse handling. This unit was created by Peter Vreman, and 
+is only available on \linux.
+
+When this unit is used, your program is linked to the C libraries, so
+you must take care of the C library version. Also, it will only work with
+version 1.17 or higher of the \file{libgpm} library.

+% Constants, types and variables
+\section{Constants, types and variables}
+\subsection{constants}
+The following constants are used to denote filenames used by the library:
+\begin{verbatim}
+_PATH_VARRUN = '/var/run/';
+_PATH_DEV    = '/dev/';
+GPM_NODE_DIR = _PATH_VARRUN;
+GPM_NODE_DIR_MODE = 0775;
+GPM_NODE_PID  = '/var/run/gpm.pid';
+GPM_NODE_DEV  = '/dev/gpmctl';
+GPM_NODE_CTL  = GPM_NODE_DEV;
+GPM_NODE_FIFO = '/dev/gpmdata';
+\end{verbatim}
+The following constants denote the buttons on the mouse:
+\begin{verbatim}
+GPM_B_LEFT   = 4;
+GPM_B_MIDDLE = 2;
+GPM_B_RIGHT  = 1;
+\end{verbatim}
+The following constants define events:
+\begin{verbatim}
+GPM_MOVE = 1;      
+GPM_DRAG = 2;
+GPM_DOWN = 4;
+GPM_UP = 8;
+GPM_SINGLE = 16;
+GPM_DOUBLE = 32;
+GPM_TRIPLE = 64;
+GPM_MFLAG = 128;
+GPM_HARD = 256;
+GPM_ENTER = 512;
+GPM_LEAVE = 1024;
+\end{verbatim}
+The following constants are used in defining margins:
+\begin{verbatim}
+GPM_TOP = 1;
+GPM_BOT = 2;
+GPM_LFT = 4;
+GPM_RGT = 8;
+\end{verbatim}
+
+% Types
+\subsection{Types}
+The following general types are defined:
+\begin{verbatim}
+  TGpmEtype = longint;
+  TGpmMargin = longint;
+\end{verbatim}
+The following type describes an event; it is passed in many of the gpm
+functions.
+\begin{verbatim}
+PGpmEvent = ^TGpmEvent;
+TGpmEvent = record
+  buttons : byte;
+  modifiers : byte;
+  vc : word;
+  dx : integer;
+  dy : integer;
+  x : integer;
+  y : integer;
+  wdx : integer;
+  wdy : integer;
+  EventType : TGpmEType;
+  clicks : longint;
+  margin : TGpmMargin;
+end;
+TGpmHandler=function(var event:TGpmEvent;clientdata:pointer):longint;cdecl;
+\end{verbatim}
+The following types are used in connecting to the \file{gpm} server:
+\begin{verbatim}
+PGpmConnect = ^TGpmConnect;
+TGpmConnect = record
+  eventMask : word;
+  defaultMask : word;
+  minMod : word;
+  maxMod : word;
+  pid : longint;
+  vc : longint;
+end;
+\end{verbatim}
+The following type is used to define {\em regions of interest}
+\begin{verbatim}
+PGpmRoi = ^TGpmRoi;
+TGpmRoi = record
+  xMin : integer;
+  xMax : integer;
+  yMin : integer;
+  yMax : integer;
+  minMod : word;
+  maxMod : word;
+  eventMask : word;
+  owned : word;
+  handler : TGpmHandler;
+  clientdata : pointer;
+  prev : PGpmRoi;
+  next : PGpmRoi;
+end;
+\end{verbatim}
+
+% Variables
+\subsection{Variables}
+The following variables are imported from the \var{gpm} library

+\item[dx,dy] size of the window.
+\item[vc] number of te virtual console.
+\item[modifiers] keyboard shift state.

+\Declaration
+function Gpm\_Open(var Conn:TGpmConnect; Flag:longint):longint;cdecl;external;
+\Description
+\var{Gpm\_Open} opens a new connection to the mouse server. The connection
+is described by the fields of the \var{conn} record:
+\begin{description}
+\item[EventMask] A bitmask of the events the program wants to receive.
+\item[DefaultMask] A bitmask to tell the library which events get their
+default treatment (text selection).
+\item[minMod] the minimum amount of modifiers needed by the program.
+\item[maxMod] the maximum amount of modifiers needed by the program.
+\end{description}
+if \var{Flag} is 0, then the application only receives events that come from
+its own terminal device. If it is negative it will receive all events. If
+the value is positive then it is considered a console number to which to
+connect.
+
+The return value is -1 on error, or the file descriptor used to communicate
+with the client. Under an X-Term the return value is -2.
+\Errors
+On Error, the return value is -1.

+\var{Gpm\_PushRoi} puts a new {\em region of interest} on the stack.
