Thanks for the hints. I can already get screen pixel coordinates of the
mouse using Gem functions. The problem is when the mouse hits the edge
of the screen, or leaves the window, they stop coming in. Maybe [hid]
solves that problem, but aren't there cross platform issues with [hid]? I
think I am basically going to have to wrap some functions of the SDL
library in an external since that's very cross platform, and very widely
supported. I've been meaning to do it to get in joystick data for
ergates for a while now.

Best,

Chris.
