     My MacTerminal manual (the cheap one without the spiral binder)
says on page 79 under "Using a Full-Screen Application":

     In addition to the cursor keys on the numeric keypad, you can use
     the mouse to position the cursor; position the pointer where you
     want the cursor to move, and hold down the Option key and click the
     mouse button.

Actually, this is not as useful as I would like; it sends the arrow-key
escape sequences to move the cursor up or down and then across to the
place where the pointer is.  For emacs, I would like it simply to spit
out an escape sequence indicating that the mouse clicked and two
characters indicating where the mouse is on the screen.  Then I could
use move-dot-to-x-y to go to that position.  I have ESC-[ bound to
something else, so that the arrow key sequences do not work, and, in any
case, they wouldn't be able to cross window boundaries anyway.
