We use a student version of JPI Modula2 here, and that doesnt come  with
as many modules. Some of the more advanced utilities are just not there,
and this includes the MSMouse support module, which is why I  can't  use
that  (believe  me I wish I could). Apparently the advantage to the dept
is they dont have to pay as much to buy all the copies  of  Modula2  and
count on the fact we're not going to need a lot of the advanced features
since we're only students. Only now they've set us a  project  demanding
we interface for a mouse... good eh?

Anybody got any ideas?

Cheers - Simon.
