Hi!  Got a question, pretty simple, but then again, so is
my pea brain!  :-)

I am trying to read the x-y position and button presses.
I am using turbo c++ and have a logitech bus mouse.  There
are no obvious provisions in Borland's c++ to read any of the items.

I have looked at the location where the driver is installed: 0D52:0000,
but the values don't change when I move the mouse or click the buttons
(infinite loop, continually printing out values.).  Anyway, sorry if this
is an FAQ, but I don't read this group, so any replies should please be
sent to "pellouch@alumni.cs.colorado.edu"

Thanx in advance,

-Phil
