Has anyone ever used a LOGITECH mouse within a TURBO Pascal or C program? I want to use the mouse as a locator and pick device. Neither TURBO's manuals nor LOGITECH's manual seem to give an help. I'm writing a Chess program and I want to improve the user interface. Any pointers would be helpful. Paul Porta, graduate student CIS department, university of florida pmp@beach.cis.ufl.edu

The book "Complete Turbo Pascal" by Jeff Duntemann describes how to use a Microsoft mouse with TP (4.0 and up); it includes a Mouse unit. I'm not sure if it would work with a Logitech mouse or not, though. Basically, you have to use the INTR procedure to access the mouse functions; your mouse manual might tell you which interrupts do what. - Jonathan Watts jrwsnsr@nmtsun.nmt.edu
