- If you mean "can you write Turbo Pascal programs that use a mouse?" the answer
- is yes (look for an example program called TBOMOUSE.PAS, or ask me for
- examples).
-
- If you mean "Can turbo's IDE use the mouse to make creating programs easier?"
- then you have to either upgrade to Turbo Pascal 6 or get a 3rd party program
- like MicroSpeed's KeyMAP (which lets lots of programs, not just Turbo Pascal,
- use a mouse to cut/paste/move/select). If anyone knows of a public domain
- alternative, I'd love to know.
