Hello everyone, I'm new to epoch, but am trying to get the World Wide Web browser for emacs that I'm writing to highlight any links the mouse moves over (ala lemacs' mode-motion-hook). It was simple to do in lemacs, but I can't quite figure out how to do it in epoch. I can write a mouse handler function that gets point under cursor and messages it and then push it on the handler stack with 'motion as the event. But it only gets called when a mouse button is down. Is there any (reasonable) way to get around this other than recompiling epoch with #define ALL_MOTIONS in config.h? I'm going to recompile later today just for the heck of it, but most people using this browser won't be able to do things like that. :) What I need is something that will tell me when the mouse cursor moves over a zone, and if the data segment of that zone matches (w3 . ###) and that ### is in an assoc list, then highlight the zone until the cursor leaves the zone. Thanks for any tips/pointers. -Bill Perry
