- Mike,
-
- Thanks again for the response. I might be mistaken but it appears
- that the code fragment is intended to only return the status of the
- mouse buttons.
-
- So I am still asking for a solution to the problem.
- | Is there a patch/extension (or whatever) which allows the reading of
- | a mouse connected to the other port?? Perhaps a function call like
- | USE_MOUSE_PORT(1) to set up the condition, and a call like
- | USE_MOUSE_PORT(0) to reset the system back to default.

- AMOS is so powerful because it does so much for us that it allows
- programming at a high level of abstraction. It has already setup its
- internal variables for the mouse pointer movement tracking and all
- an AMOS programmer has to do is read those variables. C is nice because
- you can get to those registers if you have the knowledge, but if you don't
- have that machine specific information, you are frustrated. I imagine a few
- strategic pokes (I'm sure different for each version of the OS) would do
- the trick.
