+Introduction
+============
+
+The only specification I could find describing mouse input escape sequences
+was the /usr/share/doc/xterm/ctlseqs.txt.gz file installed on my Ubuntu
+machine.
+
+Here are the relevant escape sequences:
+
+ * [ON] CSI '?' M 'h' Enable mouse input mode M
+ * [OFF] CSI '?' M 'l' Disable mouse input mode M
+ * [EVT] CSI 'M' F X Y Mouse event (default or mode 1005)
+ * [EVT6] CSI '<' F ';' X ';' Y 'M' Mouse event with mode 1006
+ * [EVT6] CSI '<' F ';' X ';' Y 'm' Mouse event with mode 1006 (up)
+ * [EVT15] CSI F ';' X ';' Y 'M' Mouse event with mode 1015
+
+The first batch of modes affect what events are reported:
+
+ * 9: Presses only (not as well-supported as the other modes)
+ * 1000: Presses and releases
+ * 1002: Presses, releases, and moves-while-pressed
+ * 1003: Presses, releases, and all moves
+
+The next batch of modes affect the encoding of the mouse events:
+
+ * 1005: The X and Y coordinates are UTF-8 codepoints rather than bytes.
+ * 1006: Use the EVT6 sequences instead of EVT
+ * 1015: Use the EVT15 sequence instead of EVT (aka URVXT-mode)
+
+Support for modes in existing terminals

+
+*a: Mode 1003 is handled the same way as 1002.
+*b: The coordinate wraps from 0xff to 0x00, then maxs out at 0x07. I'm
+ guessing this behavior is a bug? I'm using the Xubuntu 14.04
+ gnome-terminal.
+*z: These terminals have a bug where column 224 (and row 224, presumably)
+ yields a truncated escape sequence. 224 + 32 is 0, so it would normally
+ yield `CSI 'M' F '\0' Y`, but the '\0' is interpreted as a NUL-terminator.
+
+Problem 1: How do these flags work?
+===================================
+
+Terminals accept the OFF sequence with any of the input modes. This makes
+little sense--there are two multi-value settings, not seven independent flags!
+
+All the terminals handle Granularity the same way. ON-Granularity sets
+Granularity to the specified value, and OFF-Granularity sets Granularity to
+OFF.
+
+Terminals vary in how they handle the Encoding modes. For example:
+
+ * xterm. ON-Encoding sets Encoding. OFF-Encoding with a non-active Encoding
+ has no effect. OFF-Encoding otherwise resets Encoding to Default.
+
+ * mintty (tested 2.2.2), iTerm2 2.1.4, and jediterm. ON-Encoding sets
+ Encoding. OFF-Encoding resets Encoding to Default.
+
+ * Konsole (tested 2.13.2) seems to configure each encoding method
+ independently. The effective Encoding is the first enabled encoding in this
+ list:
+ - Mode 1006
+ - Mode 1015
+ - Mode 1005
+ - Default
+
+ * gnome-terminal (tested 3.6.2) also configures each encoding method
+ independently. The effective Encoding is the first enabled encoding in
+ this list:
+ - Mode 1006
+ - Mode 1015
+ - Default
+ Mode 1005 is not supported.
+
+ * xfce4 terminal 0.6.3 (GTK2 VTE) always outputs the default encoding method.
