- GtcMous1 is a C written library used to
- display a graphical mouse cursor while in Text Mode
- on VGA video Adaptors. It does so via character
- pattern rewriting. The displayed cursor moves on
- an area of 640x720 pixels, while the coordinates
- returned refer to the 80x25 text screen.
- To avoid video syncrhonization problems found
- on many VGAs GtcMous1 directly access and modify
- the video ram for pattern rewritting.
- A small demonstration program is included.

- Please NOTE: Some commercially available programs
- include such a facility. I haven't seen any
- freeware/shareware utility relative to gtcmous1.
- But if there is one already available please accept
- my apologies for posting this one too.
