NAME
mouse_seteventhandler, mouse_setdefaulteventhandler - set a mouse event handler SYNOPSIS
#include <vgamouse.h> typedef void (*__mouse_handler) (int button, int dx, int dy, int dz , int drx, int dry, int drz); /* is already in #include <vgamouse.h> included */ void mouse_seteventhandler(__mouse_handler handler); void mouse_setdefaulteventhandler(void); DESCRIPTION
mouse_update(3) and mouse_waitforupdate(3) will call this function for each change of mouse state and you can do your own book keeping and maybe even draw a mouse cursor. mouse_setdefaulteventhandler() activates the default handler. SEE ALSO

mouse_init(3)							Svgalib User Manual						     mouse_init(3)

NAME
mouse_init, mouse_init_return_fd - specifically initialize a mouse SYNOPSIS
#include <vgamouse.h> int mouse_init(char *dev, int type, int samplerate); int mouse_init_return_fd(char *dev, int type, int samplerate); DESCRIPTION
These routines can be used to open the mouse manually, ignoring the mouse types or devices specified in the config file. dev is the name of the mouse device (defaults to /dev_mouse). samplerate may be one MOUSE_DEFAULTSAMPLERATE(150) or any other value. Probably it is in Hz. type is one of the types which are listed already in vga_getmousetype(3). If these routines are used it is not necessary to call vga_setmousesupport(3), but it's probably better to not use these and use vga_set- mousesupport(3) instead. The return_fd version returns the file descriptor of the mouse device to allow you to do further tricks with the mouse (but the filehandle may change during a VC switch). The other version just returns 0 if successful. Both return -1 on error. SEE ALSO
