2.2.2 Adding Mouse Button Icons

McCLIM comes with experimental code for adding graphical mouse button icons to pointer documentation panes. To use this feature, you have to first compile the file Experimental/pointer-doc-hack.lisp in the source tree. Assuming you have built McCLIM from source as explained in the installation instructions, evaluate this form to compile the file:

     (compile-file "Experimental/pointer-doc-hack.lisp")

Then, to activate the feature, load the compiled file before starting a McCLIM session or application:

     (load "Experimental/pointer-doc-hack")

Alternatively, you may dump a Lisp image containing McCLIM and the graphical pointer documentation code. See the documentation of your Common Lisp system for more information.
