You are correct !!! This is not touchpad issue but terminal issue.
Windows cmd terminal does not accept mouse clicks. I tried on Windows 11 with a usb mouse.
so john.c was right... it does not work on Windows also with a mouse nor touchpad...
thanks for feedback
Yes this is the case...
i use XTerm in Linux and cmd on Windows11
of course I want any help...don't take it personally...
for me it works with vm so that's enough
on the other hand I don't have a mouse handy to try
thanks for your time and feedback anyway
That is not a solution. If i use a usb mouse it will work.
I tried a binary version for windows of midnight commander and there the touchpad works... i am wondering how they did it ?
gcc.exe -Wall -g -IC:\msys64\mingw64\include\ncursesw -c C:\Users\demos\Documents\WORKSPACES\C\NCURSES\4_5\main.c -o obj\Debug\main.o
gcc.exe -o bin\Debug\4_5.exe obj\Debug\main.o -lncursesw
...
i use ncursesw from Msys2
I use no library
i use msys2 mingw64 gcc
i tried on virtual box with a Debian 13. On Linux the program works fine because the OS sees mouse as USB Tablet...
i think this issue has nothing to do with Windows OS but ncurses for Linux or Windows do not support touchpad clicks as mouse clicks !
Thanks for your advice !!!
i post it also at Windows thread

Hello, i tried ncurses and touchpad clicks from an ASUS laptop with Msys2 installed.
It seems that ncurses for Windows do not support touchpad.
How can i catch touchpad-mouse clicks for ncurses...
