Hi!

More about mouse = wheels.=20

I recieved the last = week a Jerry ST=20 mouse adapter, this hardware allow you to use a ps/2 mouse with a Falcon = and=20 other Ataris. Without drivers it works like a standard mouse, but if you = want to=20 take adventage of wheels or  third button, you need to plug a = second=20 connector into the joystick port and use a driver.

The driver is loaded = by a programm=20 that is in the AUTO folder and needs a programm called Trapper to work. = This=20 program expands some AES functions like evnt_multi to make them work = with wheel=20 messages.

These two programms = and the driver=20 work fine with MiNT+Naes (although i am sure that their use is not = recommended=20 by MiNT mainteners),  under MiNT+Xaaes it doesn't work, because = Xaaes=20 already has his own mouse driver and expanded AES routines to manage = wheel=20 events... i guess.

I think that right now = the=20 combination Xaaes+moose only support Milan hardware to allow the use of = wheels,=20 also the VDI in the machines where you can use Jerry ST or Eiffel don"t = have the=20 os call vex_wheelv, so if we want to add support for another hardware = like Jerry=20 ST or Eiffel, which would be the best way to do it?: Adding the code = direct in=20 actual Moose to support the hardware?  doing differents = "Mooses" for=20 each hardware variant? expanding VDI with vex_wheelv() call ? With auto = folder=20 programms?

Thanks

David
