Gooey: Turn almost any Python command line program...
Wow, how is that even possible? The terminal examples are way more detailed than I would have imagined possible.

Yeah that's interesting. I didn't think handling mouse clicks was possible. Wonder how it's done.

A lot of popular terminal apps support mouse clicks. Off the top of my head vim, emacs, htop, and links2 all have mouse support.

for most xterm-compatible terminals, you send an escape sequence that enables mouse tracking, and then mouse clicks turn into escape sequences.
