at the current screen position is ANDed with the screen mask

and the with the cursor mask

0Bh Read Motion Counters

entry AH 0Bh

return CX number of mickeys mouse moved horiz. since last call

DX number of mickeys mouse moved vertically

note 1) A mickey is the smallest increment the mouse can sense.

Positive values indicate up/right

0Ch Define Interrupt Subroutine Parameters

ES:DX address of FAR routine

return unknown

note when the subroutine is called, it is passed these values:

AH condition mask (same bit assignments as call mask)

BX button state

CX cursor column

DX cursor row

DI horizontal mickey count

SI vertical mickey count

0Dh Light Pen Emulation On

entry AH 0Dh

return unknown

0Eh Light Pen Emulation Off

entry AH 0Eh

return unknown

0Fh Define Mickey/Pixel Ratio

DX number of mickeys per 8 pixels vertically

return unknown

10h Define Screen Region for Updating

entry AH 10h

CX,DX X,Y coordinates of upper left corner

SI,DI X,Y coordinates of lower right corner

ES:DX pointer to bit map of screen and cursor maps

return AH -1 if successful

note PC Mouse. Not documented by Microsoft

13h Define Double-Speed Threshold

entry AH 13h

DX threshold speed in mickeys/second,

0 = default of 64/second

return unknown

note If speed exceeds threshold, the cursor's on-screen motion

is doubled
