EGAMouse is a TP 4.0 unit that adds Microsoft Mouse support to your
EGA TP programs. Most of the credit for it is due to Richard Sadowsky,
the author of Mouse4.pas, a unit that adds mouse support for text-mode
programs. I made some minor adjustments to it, added the function
CursorShape (with the help of John Sieraski; his implementation of it
worked, mine didn't, so the code for CursorShape is his, with a minor
modification added by me), and wrote the demo program.
Future releases will include support for mouse functions 29 (get CRT
page number) and 30 (set CRT page number), and will have a few more
cursor shapes.
You must have the Microsoft (or compatible) mouse driver installed as
described in the Microsoft Mouse User's Guide. I have version 6 of the
Mouse software; EGAMouse might not work with earlier versions.
This unit should work with trivial modifications on CGA
programs. All that has to be changed is the scaling of the X and Y
coordinates. To change the demo program for CGA, just change the
grDriver and grMode values at the beginning of the main body.
