Disable mouse clicks in gvim on ubuntu

How do I make gvim ignore mouse clicks. I'm really sick of the trackpad making my cursor all over the place. I use xubuntu if that means anything.


Solution 1:

I use:

:set mouse=c

This sets it to command-line mode. You can read about all of the options by typing,

:help mouse

To avoid needing to type the command each time, you can put it in your ~/.vimrc

Solution 2:

As akira said, you can disable the mouse entirely, but you can also selectively disable mouse buttons by mapping them to <nop>. For example, if it is just a problem in insert mode, and just the left mouse button:

:imap <LeftMouse> <nop>

You can even do it for double clicks:

:imap <2-LeftMouse> <nop>

See:

:help gui-mouse-mapping
:help map-overview

Solution 3:

:set mouse=
