Mouse support - akinsho/toggleterm.nvim GitHub Wiki

Due to this open neovim bug, some extra steps must be performed in order to enable mouse support.

Enabing mouse support for ToggleTerm

In order to enable mouse support for ToggleTerm and/or neovim's terminal. You must

set mouse=""

This will make the mouse behave like a normal terminal.

Enabing mouse support for terminal programs

But before launching a terminal program, an extra step needs to be done.

set mouse="a"        # Restore mouse support → run this in neovim, the rest goes on the terminal.
printf "\x1b[?1000h" # Set term code

# run your terminal program here

printf "\x1b[?1000l" # Unset term code
set mouse=""         # This gives us a normal mouse on the term

This will enable mouse support inside of the terminal program.

Restoring nvim mouse support when leaving the term

set mouse="a"

Notes

This implementation provides 100% mouse support, including left mouse, right mouse, scroll wheeel, and middle click. To make it work, make sure you have this setted TERM=xterm256color. Other TERM values may not work as expected.
