BUTTON(9.2) BUTTON(9.2) NAME button123, mouse, cursallow, cursinhibit, cursset, cursswitch, getrect123 - mouse control SYNOPSIS #include <jerq.h> extern struct Mouse { Point xy; short buttons; } mouse; int button(n) int n; int button1(), button2(), button3(); int button12(), button23(), button123(); void cursinhibit(); void cursallow(); void cursset(p); Point p; Texture *cursswitch(t); Texture *t; Rectangle getrect(n) int n; Rectangle getrect1(), getrect2(), getrect3(); Rectangle getrect12(), getrect23(), getrect123(); DESCRIPTION When the mouse is requested (see request(9.2)), the mouse state is updated asynchronously in the structure mouse. The coordinates of the mouse are held in mouse.xy, and the state of the buttons in mouse.buttons. Each process's mouse structure is independent of the others, so that (except for cursset) actions such as changing the tracking cursor do not affect the mouse in other processes. The macro button and its counterparts return the state of the associated mouse button: non-zero if the button is depressed, 0 otherwise. The buttons are numbered 1 to 3 from left to right. Button12 and the other multi-button functions return the OR of their states: true if either but- ton 1 or button 2 is depressed. Cursinhibit turns off interrupt-time cursor tracking (the drawing of the cursor on the screen), although the mouse coordinates are still kept current and available. Cursallow enables interrupt-time cursor tracking. Cursallow and cursinhibit stack: to enable cursor tracking after two calls to cursinhibit, two calls to cursallow are required. BUTTON(9.2) BUTTON(9.2) Cursset moves the mouse cursor to the Point p. Cursswitch changes the mouse cursor (a 16×16 pixel image) to that specified by the Texture *t. If the argument is (Texture*)0, the cursor is restored to the default arrow. Cursswitch returns the previous value of the cursor: the argument of the previous call to cursswitch. Getrect prompts the user with a box cursor and waits for a rectangle to be swept out with the named button, identified as with the button primitives. It returns the screen coor- dinates of the box swept. The box may be partly or wholly outside the process's layer.
