I've just changed the GUI so I can operate in other text modes. When I set the number of lines using text_rows(), my mouse disappears unless it is in 85*25 mode. I'm using Jiri's ratbag tools, but that shouldn't make a difference, should it? Does anyone know why the mouse doesn't appear in other modes? Thanks. -- David Cuny

Maybe the function text_rows() also affects the mouse_pointer. But when I added mouse_pointer(1) after the call to text_rows(), the mouse came out again and it seems to stay that way. Hope this is satisfactory. Ad

Thanks. The mouse is back! I was a bit paranoid after reading that for multiple calls to turn the mouse off, you need the same number to turn it back on. I guess it doesn't apply in the reverse, though. The now supports multiple line resolutions; I'll try to put it in the editor as an option as well for the next release. -- David Cuny
