Howzit, I want to write a program that will take external input to drive the cursor. I the input will be some form of serial data. I think the program has to be in the form of a serial driver or a patched in INIT. I'm not sure. Any suggestions? Also, I have seen the source code for an INIT called "Auto Cruise" and the authors make use of the mouse global variables MTemp, RawMouse, and Mouse. Can anyone explain how these globals are supposed to be used? By the way, "Auto Cruise" is an INIT and is written in assembly. The only information I have that will help me understand these global variables are the comments included in the source code. The types of instructions are as follows: move.l RawMouse,D0 ; Get the unprocessed mouse coordinate . . . move.l D0, Mouse ; processed mouse . . . etc. Mahalo for you kokua!!!
