It's actually very simple.  INT 33, with various different values in the AX
register.  I have a mouse library that is event driven.  This means, that to 
find out if the mouse has done anything, you need to grab a structure from 
an event list.  Most people do it this way, however, some people prefer to have
their mouse routines poll the mouse when they want to look for something rather
than have every mouse event be captured by the event manager.

It's a very small library.  Something like 300 lines of C source, including 
the interrupt handler, and all of the event information.  I could send it to 
some FTP site or something.
