Subject: [PATCH man v2 0/2] TIOCLINUX.2const: Document TIOCL_SETSEL selection modes
Date: Sun, 23 Feb 2025 22:36:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250223213642.10042-1-gnoack3000@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi!

TIOCLINUX's TIOCL_SETSEL sub-code has another layer of sub-operations,
called "selection modes" (even though not all of them actually deal
with the mouse selection).

Going forward, the CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement will be different for
some of these selection modes, which prompted me to at least list the
different selection modes with a short description.  I am leaving
CAP_SYS_ADMIN documentation as it is for now and will send another
patch once these semantics are finalized [1] [2].

Thanks,
–Günther
