How to enable the mouse in C++ program under DOS using DJGPP?

Question

I've been using DJGPP for the first time recently and can't seem to enable mouse support. What's the best way?

Thanks for any help.

Gosh, this takes me back! You need the software interrupt 33H - see http://www.sentex.net/~ajy/mouseint.html, and a tutorial of sorts at http://www.writeka.com/emage/mouse_events.html.
