I've never messed with getting stuff that way, so...

I suggest that instead you get mouse XY position from your Window or
IDCMP, and cursor position, etc, from your ConUnit structure.

If you are in a CON: window, send an ACTION_DISK_INFO packet to get
pointers to the window and the ConUnit.

See my previous posting (last week ?) all about ConUnit and packets to
console, etc.
