jamescherti/inhibit-mouse.el: Disable the mouse in Emacs (Alternative to disable-mouse)

The inhibit-mouse package allows the disabling of mouse input in Emacs using inhibit-mouse-mode.

Instead of modifying the keymap of its own mode as the disable-mouse package does, enabling inhibit-mouse-mode only modifies input-decode-map to disable mouse events, making it more efficient and faster than disable-mouse.

Additionally, the inhibit-mouse package allows for the restoration of mouse input when inhibit-mouse-mode is disabled.

To install outline-indent from MELPA:

1. If you haven't already done so, add MELPA repository to your Emacs configuration.
2. Add the following code to the Emacs init file:

(use-package inhibit-mouse
  :ensure t
  :custom
  ;; Disable highlighting of clickable text such as URLs and hyperlinks when
  ;; hovered by the mouse pointer.
  (inhibit-mouse-adjust-mouse-highlight t)

  ;; Disables the use of tooltips (show-help-function) during mouse events.
  (inhibit-mouse-adjust-show-help-function t)

  :config
  (if (daemonp)
      (add-hook 'server-after-make-frame-hook #'inhibit-mouse-mode)
    (inhibit-mouse-mode 1)))

The inhibit-mouse custom variables allow you to fine-tune which mouse interactions are disabled.

You can use the following configuration to specify which mouse buttons and events you want to disable:

;; This variable specifies which mouse buttons should be inhibited from
;; triggering events.
(setq inhibit-mouse-button-numbers '(1 2 3 4 5))

;; List of mouse button events to be inhibited.
(setq inhibit-mouse-button-events '("mouse"
                                    "up-mouse"
                                    "down-mouse"
                                    "drag-mouse"))

;; List of miscellaneous mouse events to be inhibited.
(setq inhibit-mouse-misc-events '("wheel-up"
                                  "wheel-down"
                                  "wheel-left"
                                  "wheel-right"
                                  "pinch"))

;; List of mouse multiplier events to be inhibited.
(setq inhibit-mouse-multipliers '("double" "triple"))

;; List of key modifier combinations to be inhibited for mouse events.
(setq inhibit-mouse-key-modifiers '((control)
                                    (meta)
                                    (shift)
                                    (control meta shift)
                                    (control meta)
                                    (control shift)
                                    (meta shift)))

To enable or disable the context menu based on the state of inhibit-mouse-mode, the following code dynamically toggles context-menu-mode accordingly:

(add-hook 'inhibit-mouse-mode-hook
          #'(lambda()
              ;; Enable or disable the context menu based on the state of
              ;; `inhibit-mouse-mode', the following code dynamically toggles
              ;; `context-menu-mode' accordingly.
              (when (fboundp 'context-menu-mode)
                (if (bound-and-true-p inhibit-mouse-mode)
                    (context-menu-mode -1)
                  (context-menu-mode 1)))))

This ensures that the context menu is disabled when inhibit-mouse-mode is active and enabled when it is inactive.

When tooltip-mode is enabled, Emacs displays certain UI hints (e.g., help text and mouse-hover messages) as popup windows near the cursor, instead of in the echo area. This behavior is useful in graphical Emacs sessions.

To toggle tooltip-mode dynamically based on the state of inhibit-mouse-mode, you can use the following hook:

(add-hook 'inhibit-mouse-mode-hook
          #'(lambda()
              ;; Enable or disable `tooltip-mode'. When tooltip-mode is
              ;; enabled, certain UI elements (e.g., help text, mouse-hover
              ;; hints) will appear as native system tooltips (pop-up
              ;; windows), rather than as echo area messages. This is useful
              ;; in graphical Emacs sessions where tooltips can appear near
              ;; the cursor.
              (when (fboundp 'tooltip-mode)
                (if (bound-and-true-p inhibit-mouse-mode)
                    (tooltip-mode -1)
                  (tooltip-mode 1)))))

The following configuration toggles pixel-scroll-precision-mode based on the state of inhibit-mouse-mode, excluding macOS Carbon environments where pixel scrolling is natively supported and does not require explicit activation.

(add-hook 'inhibit-mouse-mode-hook
          #'(lambda()
              (unless (and
                       ;; Exclude macOS Carbon environments where pixel
                       ;; scrolling is natively supported and does not
                       ;; require explicit activation.
                       (eq window-system 'mac)
                       (bound-and-true-p mac-carbon-version-string))
                (when (fboundp 'pixel-scroll-precision-mode)
                  (if (bound-and-true-p inhibit-mouse-mode)
                      (pixel-scroll-precision-mode -1)
                    (pixel-scroll-precision-mode 1))))))

The author disables the mouse in Emacs:

• To prevent accidental clicks or cursor movements that can change the cursor position unexpectedly.
• To reinforce a keyboard-centric workflow, helping to avoid the habit of relying on the mouse for navigation.

Some may suggest that the author could modify the touchpad settings at the OS level. However, he prefers not to disable the touchpad entirely, as it remains useful in other applications, such as web browsers.

The inhibit-mouse package is a efficient alternative to the disable-mouse package, as it only modifies input-decode-map to disable mouse events.

In contrast, disable-mouse applies mouse events to its own mode, and sometimes the user has to apply it to other modes that are not affected by the disable-mouse mode using the disable-mouse-in-keymap function (e.g, evil-mode, tab-bar...).

Additionally, inhibit-mouse:

• Allows re-enabling mouse functionality when the mode is disabled, which is not supported by disable-mouse when the disable-mouse-in-keymap function is used. The disable-mouse-in-keymap function overwrites the key mappings of other modes (e.g., evil, tab-bar), and there is no straightforward way to make disable-mouse restore them.
• It resolves issues that disable-mouse does not, such as the "C-c C-x is not bound" problem, where the user intended to enter C-c C-x j but accidentally touched the touchpad.

This concept of utilizing input-decode-map to disable the mouse was introduced by Stefan Monnier in an emacs-devel mailing list thread initiated by Daniel Radetsky, who proposed a patch to the Emacs developers. Additionally, here is an interesting discussion on GitHub: Add recipe for inhibit-mouse.
