- I just finished a mouse driver that supports all bgi (borland c/c++) (and pascal) graphics modes. It allows the user to redefine and create his own
- cursors in 256 colors (or 16...). It's shareware, but unless you want the
- source code or want to create commercial programs, you don't need to regester it.
-
- It is located on the ftp server "wuarchive.wustl.edu" in the directory
- "/pub/MSDOS_UPLOADS" it is called "mmouse10.z" It is actually a zipped file
- that lost the last 2 letters of its name extention. The readme file included
- should provide adequate documantstion for whatever you want to do. If you
- have any questions or problems let me know by email.
