Enhancing Emacs mouse avoidance
Read OriginalThis article details a technical enhancement to the Emacs editor's mouse avoidance feature. It explains how the default `make-pointer-invisible` setting works and the limitations of `mouse-avoidance-mode`. The author describes their contribution: patches that allow `mouse-avoidance-mode` to check if the pointer is already invisible (using `frame-pointer-invisible-p`) before making it jump, a fix merged into Emacs 24.
