Regression in 0.2.16: Mouse completely unresponsive (cursor, menus, tabs/buffers) on Windows #1284

@maddes8cht

Describe the bug
In the new release 0.2.16, mouse input is completely broken across all tested Windows terminals.

  • Cannot click to move cursor in the editor
  • Cannot interact with menus (clicking does nothing)
  • Cannot switch/select buffers/tabs with mouse
  • No mouse selection, scrolling, resizing panes/explorer etc. works

Tested terminals (all affected):

  • Windows Terminal
  • conhost.exe (classic Windows Console)
  • Cmder
  • Contour
  • WezTerm
  • Mintty

Tested on two different windows 11 machines

Shells tested: cmd, PowerShell, Git Bash — same behavior everywhere.

Versions affected: 0.2.16
Previous versions: In 0.2.14 and earlier, mouse worked fine in most of these terminals (e.g. WezTerm, conhost, Contour).

famous last words
Love this Project.

Unfortunately this new regression makes mouse usage impossible, which is a core feature of Fresh („mouse support, familiar UX“).
I'm really looking forward to using it fully again!
