Eric,

     The mouse may prove a real problem.  If we move the cursor now, we
move by line, character, word, sentence, but we usually have an idea what
we've used as a unit.  How we gonna do that with a mouse?  Could you put in
a move by character with character reading if moving slow and if moving
fast put in a cursor coordinates readout with the whole line read next?
Don't know what that would be like in practice, but that's about the best I
can come up with on short notice.
