<short>Interface to GPM (General Purpose Mouse) library</short>
<!-- \FPCexampledir{gpmex} -->
<descr>
<p>
The <file>GPM</file> unit implements an interface to <file>libgpm</file>,
the console program for mouse handling. This unit was created by Peter
Vreman, and is only available on linux.
</p>
<p>
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</file> library.
