	The problem that I am having is that I am linking together several
.OBJ files, and I don't want to declare a variable as global (for reasons
too detailed)...  The delay is only about one second, but that interrupt
also resets the mouse, which I don't want to do...

	Many programs have their own drivers built-in; how do they determine
the number of buttons?  I guess what I'm looking for is information that
is related to ports, etc.  i.e. send a value to the serial port+1, look at
top three bits, whatever...
