- To get mouse support, you must first have the mouse driver installed
- (normally mouse.com or mouse.sys). Then refer to a mouse reference on
- the interrupt access. An example procedure might be:
-
- procedure LowLevelMouse(var r:registers);
- begin
- Intr($33,r);
- end;
-
- Some mice come with references in their manuals or in text files on
- disk, others (like microsoft's [who are so CHEAP they squeak]) come in a
- seperate book with lots of superflous info on THEIR compilers
- (QuickBasic, etc) and one chapter on connection with Turbo Pascal.
- Another source you might try is Que's DOS Programmer's Reference
- (something like that) or Ralf Brown's Interrupt List (locatable at any
- decent anonymous FTP site). Hope this helped.
