I am assuming the "bitmouse" is the sequential system's mouse interface
card for the II that uses ibm style serial mouse.  I think the only
text editor that uses the mouse is AppleWorks 3.0 patched with TimeOut
enhancements (I think UltraMacros is the one) and ProTerm 3.0's editor.
Or you could check out BeagleWrite (formerly StyleWriter,) but it does not
use a "text" environment, since it uses a graphical interface.  I am not
sure if AppleWriter allows the use of mouse.
