For those who yearn to have access to their mouse wheels... For those who
crave real keyboard input without using the hidden text box hack... You can
now build the applications you have been dreaming of!
With my new directInput dlm you can:
Get *all* mouse data - including the z-axis (yes, the wheel)!
Add function key support, use accelerators, use every key on the keyboard!
Access game devices: 8 axes, 16 buttons and 4 POV hats!
O.K. Maybe that is a little over the top but come on, how many of you have
wished for access to the mouse wheel? Yeah, I know you have... You can
download a .zip file containing the dlms compiled for 5.4 and 5.5, along
with some documentation and an example program from:
http://www.acoustics.washington.edu/~towler/index.html
This dlm is for win32 systems only, requires IDL 5.4 or 5.5 and DirectX 8 or
better. It has been compiled and tested on win2k SP2/3 with the directX8.1
SDK and VC++ 6.
Enjoy!
-Rick
