Depending on the level of mouse support you need, you may find it sufficient
to write C functions which communicate with the mouse driver via software
interrupts (i.e., by using the library function in86x()).  Howver, designing
a thorough interface takes a lot of work, so you may wish to buy a commercial
package.  I work for Blaise Computing in Berkeley, CA; we sell a package
called Turbo C TOOLS which lists for $149.  There are several others on the
market, so you may wish to call someone like Programmer's Connection,
which is a mail order house specializing in programming tools such as ours
and our competitor's.  They're located in Canton, OH, and have an 800
number you can get from information.
