[net.micro.cbm] Using a R/S mouse on a C64

dave@zinfandel.UUCP (12/15/84)

Thanks to all who responded to my question about interfacing a Radio Shack
mouse to the joystick ports on a C64.  I received about 20 responses (a lot
more than I thought I would get!).

The comments I got ranged all the way from "you can't do it" to "just plug
it in".  The general consenus was that I must use *both* joystick ports
and (of course) write a routine to handle it.

In any case, I think I'll give it a try.  I'll post to the net my results
when I've got something.

Thanks again for all the responses.
