Cute Mouse driver v1.5 (C) Nagy Daniel, 1997-1998
Description:
------------
ctmouse.com - driver for Microsoft, Mouse Systems and Logitech serial mice
ctmousep.com - driver for PS/2 mice
These programs are mouse drivers, which support many mouse protocols.
Basically they were written to use as little memory as possible.
The amount of memory they need is about 7K. They to install themselves
into upper memory first, if availbale, so do not load high them with
external utilities (like DOS lh command).
These drivers support standard Microsoft, Mouse Systems, Logitech MouseMan
and PS/2 protocols. There are two separate programs to achieve the smallest
memory requirement possible.
- The first driver autodetects the mouse, but if you're inpatient, or the
detection fails, it is possible to force a specific mode with command line
options.
- The second driver is for PS/2 only.
Help can be obtained with the /? option.
These programs are freeware, which means that anyone is free to use and
distribute these programs as long as the programs and this documentation
are not modified and no money is asked.
You cannot sell the package for money unless prior agreement with the author!
Intel has received permission from the author to include this mouse driver in
this software package.
This driver is part of the FreeDOS project now, with the complete source code.

Please do not write any e-mails to me asking for including things.
However, working patches with comments and mouse protocol documentations
are welcome. The source is free, it is time to learn assembly programming!
