You can add a tpu command to your section file source (if you have one):
	set(mouse,off);

Or create a file such as no_mouse.tpu that contains:
	set(mouse,off);
and do:
	edit/tpu/command=no_mouse file-to-edit

Or create a file such as no_mouse.eve that contains:
	tpu set(mouse,off);
and do:
	edit/tpu/initialization=no_mouse file-to-edit

Hope this helps.
