This is MouseInfo

It is a rip-off of the 7th-software (Steve Revill) original, published with his permission. It demonstrates using the Toolbox and Basalt to do the same job.

I have added:

  * the task name for the task owning the window under the pointer
  * the Toolbox object and component numbers, if appropriate

It also uses my Call module to sample at a fixed interval rather than use Wimp_Null.

I am not sure of the RGB colours, though.

This program is  Steve Drain.

It is Freeware.

!MouseInfo v1.01 (24 Oct 2007)

This is a reasonably simple application which demonstrates what you need to
put in place in order to have a multitasking Wimp application working with
the !Routines libraries. This application includes windows and menus (and a
rather pointless nested window).

It displays information in the main window about the current mouse pointer
position, including:

  * co-ordinates
  * the task handle for the task owning the window under the pointer
  * window handle of window under the pointer
  * icon handle of icon under the pointer
  * RGB colour of pixel under the pointer
  * The window flags word for the window under the pointer
  * The icon flags word for any icon under the pointer

It's actually vaguely useful!
