[comp.sys.atari.st] Initmous

lean@sbcs (Lean L. Loh) (11/01/87)

  I like to be able to initialize the mouse.  I fingered I should use the
the Initmouse ( xbios(0) ) function, given as follows:

 void Initmous( type, parameter, vector );
 int type;
 char *parameter;
 long vector;

 According to ST Internals,  vector is the address of a routine which will
be executed following a mouse-report from the keyboard processor. I can't
seem to find out what this address (mouse interrupt routine) is.  Can't
anyone tell me, please?

 Is there a better way to initialize the mouse?  Somehow, whenever I exit
Publishing Partner v1.02, and then execute another gem program the mouse
is lost.  (* Doing a show_mouse after exiting P.Partner, and then executing
a gem program will cause the mouse cursor to appear in the gem program,
but it will leave an annoying backgroud patch
