Using command-mouse in MacTerminal causes the program to send the vt100
arrow-key sequences needed to move you from the current cursor position
to where the mouse is currently pointing. The sequence sent moves you
from "here" to the left margin, up or down to the "there" line, then
right to "there". It's far from optimal, and if your editor wraps
lines that extend beyond the right margin, this will not work correctly
(since it counts display lines, not text lines).

It's a start, but only that.
