Someone else has handled this question. :)

Using get_mouse()

RETURNED    ACTION
1                  MOVEMENT
2                LEFT Button Pressed

If moving and press left button you must add the values together.

2+1 = 3

This is true for all the get_mouse() returned values.
If you press two buttons at exactly the same time then
the returned value would be the sum of the two buttons
values.

BUTTON1 + BUTTON2 = Returned.

I hope that Greg will ReSend what little code he has for handling
modems.  His modem routines are very limited but he spent a great
deal of time and trouble getting that much done.  Maybe you can
find them useful.  He doesn't get much to program lately. :)
