Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Don't think I've heard any mention of using a mouse with an MM+?

Or is there a thread somewhere I'm missing.

Micromite with Mouse.

Phil.

As per post by Geoff on another thread:

  Quote  I have a new beta for the MM+ almost ready to post and it includes a BLIT command written by Peter Mather.


Trust me, Peter & Geoff have been very busy over Christmas and as a result there are are few nice features coming your way soon . . . .

Well spotted on the video though!

I notice it's views have jumped a bit.

And I just happened to stumble on a few brand new MS PS/2 mice in a box yesterday.

I've spent days looking through my junk boxes but not a PS2 mouse to be seen anywhere.

All the local computer repair shops have shut down around here; and the computer auctions that were once every Sunday seem to be held no more!

Will have to turn to eBay for a second hand one which is really annoying bearing in mind I used to chuck these mice away due to having so many!

I did notice the local library had PS2 keyboards and mice though

Would be nice if this mouse cursor can also be controlled by for instance an analog or digital joystick. Like a mouse driver that can be replaced or interfaced to.
If mouse x,y and click could be manipulated from software it would be possible to open this up to many different kinds of inputs.
In my area finding a PS/2 mouse or keyboard is as good as impossible.
Ordering from ebay, well that is not really a reliable source.
