get_mouse() in mode 19

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

hi.  I need to get the mouse coordinates in 320x200x256 color mode.  I do
a x1=get_mouse() and check to see if x1 is a sequence then get x1[2] and
x1[3] for the x and y coordinates.  How come my x coordinates are twice
what they should be? (i.e. at 100,50 x1[2]=200) the y is correct and
ranges from 0-200, but x ranges from 0 to 640 by 2's.

Do I have a kludged mouse.e or is it supposed to work like that and not
mentioned in the manual? (I'm using 1.5 and I too think the FUPHORIA is a
STOOPID and malevolent thing to do to us when we try to play with an alpha
(or any) release. GR!)
