: We develop an application that using Microwindow. The app will be using
: screen display instead of Window frame environment such as Microwin
: applications. 
: 
: When I try to use GdReadMouse and GdOpenMouse combination to get the
: mouse position it is required that I have to run GdOpenScreen first. Do
: you have a way that I can bypass GdOpenScreen and let mouse work
: independent from screen.

Currently, it seems that it's required to call GdOpenScreen before
the GdOpenMouse will work, since many mouse functions update
the cursor on the screen.  I will look into how hard it might be
to separate these calls.
