SUMMARY

You can write your own mouse menus for programs that do not provide their own mouse support.

The "Microsoft Mouse Programmer's Reference" allows you to write your own mouse menus for these programs. The reference guide includes the necessary software and documentation to allow you to write keyboard emulation programs using mouse menus.

Mouse menus can run in text mode with most programs that do not intercept the keyboard interrupts.
