Note : some mouse card uses 65C02 instruction set. So enhanced IIe is better.

Software using mouse detects the mouse automatically. Using in BASIC needs the
lines like:
10 D$=CHR$(4):? D$;"PR#4": ? CHR$(1) : REM activate mouse
20 ? D$;"PR#0"
30 ? D$;"IN#4"
40 INPUT "";X,Y,S
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Then X,Y is the location. S is the button status (-ve if key pending).
