	First off, let me make a better explanation of what I'm wanting to
know from my previous post.

	In BASIC you can open a Random (or Indexed) file by using the
following:

	OPEN "r", #1, "filename.ext", record size

	where record size is the number of bytes set aside per record.

	Then, at any time while it is open, one can get or put information
into a specific point in the file by using:

	GET #1, rec
       or
  PUT #1, rec

	(where rec is the record to be accessed)

Is there a way to do this in Modula-2.  This is probably a stupid
question, but I really don't know.

Anyway...

	Does anyone have or know of a public domain library module for
reading mice activity? 
	If not, could someone give me some insight on writing one of my own?

	For the project I'm working on, this is probably a more important
question than the one about random files.

	Rather than post an answer to the net, I'd prefer you e-mail me
responses (unless you feel that others may wish to know also).
