The recent mouse shurtcuts commits allow customization, but ignore
forcemousemod mask (default: shift) as a modifier, for no good reason
other than following the behavior of the KB shortcuts.
Allow using forcemousemod too, which now can be used to invoke
different shortcuts, though the automatic effect of forcemousemod will
be lost for buttons which use mask with forcemousemod.
E.g. the default is:
static uint forcemousemod = ShiftMask;
...
{ XK_ANY_MOD, Button4, ttysend, {.s = "\031"} },
...
where ttysend will be invoked for button4 with any mod when not in mouse
mode, and with shift when in mouse mode.
Now it's possible to do this:
{ ShiftMask, Button4, ttysend, {.s = "foo"} },
{ XK_ANY_MOD, Button4, ttysend, {.s = "\031"} },
Which will invoke ttysend("foo") while shift is held and ttysend("\031")
otherwise. Shift still overrides mouse mode, but will now send "foo".
Previously with this setup the second binding was always invoked
because the forceousemod mask was always removed from the event.
Buttons which don't use forcemousemod behave the same as before.
This is useful e.g. for the scrollback mouse patch, which wants to
configure shift+wheel for scrollback, while keeping the normal behavior
without shift.
Because selpaste is activated on release, a release flag was added to
mouse shortcuts which controls whether activation is on press/release,
and selpaste binding to button2 was moved to config.h .
button1 remains the only hardcoded mouse button - for selection + copy.
Allow forceselmod to override all mouse shortcuts rather than only
selection, and rename it to forcemousemod as it's now more appropriate.
This will affect mouse shortcuts which use mask other than XK_ANY_MOD.
This does not affect the default behavior because the default mouse
shortcuts (wheel) use XK_ANY_MOD, where forceselmod already activated
the override also before this change.
Previously, if a mouse shortcut was configured with a specific mod and
forceselmod was held, then the shortcut did not execute unless the
configured mod included forceselmod.
