title MSE-2	Basic Mouse Operations
comment+
	This program restricts the mouse pointer to within a display
		rectangle (greenish blue area), and it
		displays continuously the current coordinates
		of the mouse in the top row of the screen.
		You quit the pressing the left mouse button.
	SOURCE:  Adapted by Chee Yap (10/97) from Abel, p.392.
		Modifications:
			-- screen dimensions can be easily changed
			-- save and restore old mode
	HINTS/BUGS:
		-- this program does not clear the screen outside
			the mouse area
		-- in windows NT, the mouse limits does not quite
			work if you remain a window within NT.
			Hence you need to take over the whole screen
			(type ALT-ENTER in the ms-dos window)
		-- in windows 95, there is another way to get the
			mouse limits to work: go to properties menu
			of the MSDOS Prompt Window, choose the
			``misc'' tab, and set the mouse to
			be ``exclusive'' for this window.
