Hi, I attached a driver for the MouseSystems-type mice (such as the Genius
brand, and most brands of 3-button mice). It requires GridFlow, but it
shouldn't be too hard to redo the patch without it.

I don't have a working Microsoft-type mouse (or other type of RS232
serial mouse) so I can't really test other drivers I'd create. However,
specifications for a lot of mouse protocols are available on the internet.
