I would like to know the details of programming the common mice that are used in DOS systems, i.e details of the serial protocols used, meaning of the raw data obtained from the mice, how to program a bus mouse directly (at the I/O port level) etc. I am thinking in particular of the Microsoft bus+serial, genius, and mouse systems mice. This info is needed because it is not possible to use the normal mouse device drivers in the environment in which they are being used, and therefore it is necessary to resort to the hardware itself. Please reply by e-mail. I'll post a summary later. Many thanks in advance, -- - Colin Manning, cm%jet.uucp@ukc.ac.uk (world) OR cm@jet.uucp (UK only) ------------------------------ Disclaimer: Please note that the above is a personal view and should not be construed as an official comment from the JET project.
