Documentation

Last input event in a command, except for mouse menu events.

Mouse menus give back keys that don't look like mouse events; this variable holds the actual mouse event that led to the menu, so that you can determine whether the command was run by mouse or not.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 19.23.
