  There are two ways to set up @dfn{clickable text} in a buffer.
There are typically two parts of this: to make the text highlight
when the mouse is over it, and to make a mouse button do something
when you click it on that part of the text.

  Highlighting is done with the @code{mouse-face} text property.
Here is an example of how Dired does it:

@smallexample
(condition-case nil
    (if (dired-move-to-filename)
        (put-text-property (point)
