I'm trying to get MouseTerm to work with Terminal.app. I'm on Snow Leopard and followed the install instructions promptly (which are, simply, download the .dmg and run the 'Install' file).

When I start Terminal.app, I still can't use the mouse (specifically in Vim, using set mouse=a).

Anyone got it working?

A couple of things to note:

  1. You need SIMBL to run MouseTerm.
  2. Once you've installed SIMBL and MouseTerm and restarted Terminal.app, you'll be able to use your scroll wheel in vim, but no other mouse buttons. They simply aren't implemented in MouseTerm yet.

Thanks. That was far from obvious from the homepage. – Jonatan Littke Apr 27 '10 at 12:28
I've updated the homepage based on your feedback. It now explicitly mentions that you need to install SIMBL before doing anything else. – Brodie Rao May 1 '10 at 22:10
Thanks a lot for this update! – Jonatan Littke May 10 '10 at 8:49
