 Some terminal emulators under X support mouse clicks in the terminal
 window.  In a terminal emulator which is compatible with @code{xterm},
-simple use of the mouse is, by default, controlled by Emacs---basically,
-only non-modified single clicks are supported.  The normal
-@code{xterm} mouse functionality for such clicks is still available by
-holding down the @kbd{SHIFT} key when you press the mouse button.
-
-Put @code{(xterm-mouse-mode 0)} in your @file{.emacs}, or disable the
-option @code{xterm-mouse-mode} through the @samp{Customize} interface
-(@pxref{Easy Customization}), if you prefer all mouse clicks to be
-handled by the terminal emulator.
