Hi,
Is there a way I can disable prompt regarding mouse, such as "mouse-2: copy to input; mouse-3: menu". Under Emacs 23.3, those prompts emerge as one-line GUI pop-ups which slows down the response time of my remotely invoked Emacs (through X). Thank you for your help!

Best,
Yuan

Does "M-x tooltip-mode RET" do what you want?

Much better after I disable tooltip mode! Now that the tool tip is displayed in the minibuffer, it still delays a bit (not that long as before, presumably for users to see the tool tip), How do I even disable that? 

Best,
Yuan
