Note to self: Midnight Commander mouse support when running in screen

Usability discovery of the day:
When running Midnight Commander within a GNU Screen terminal, the mouse cannot by default be used to manipulate the cursor. However, starting mc with the command-line switch -x enables the mouse support once more. Very handy!
