ability to disable mouse events in dialog?

[Josh Hunt]

(If this isn't the proper forum for my question let me know if there
is a better place.)

I'm writing a bash script using dialog as the UI and would like to
disable/ignore mouse clicks/events.  Is this possible to do from the
command-line?  I do not see any mention of this in the dialog man
page.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
