I have 2 joystick related questions. The first is, does anyone know if there is a driver that will allow me to use my joystick (actually 12button/3axis gamepad) to control my mouse pointer in windows95? I have one program that will allow me to do that (very indirectly) using windows accessability & the program that camewith my joystick. But it is exceedingly slow, because it uses 2 forms of redirection. First it translates joystick movements to key presses (slow), then I use the windows accessability to translate that to mouse movements. But that is so slow, it's practically unusable. I'd like to know if there is anything that can do it directly. Also, does anyone know how to use windows calls to use a joystick? I know how to use a standard joystick by talking to the gameport directly. My problem is that the joystick I want to use is non-standard. It has a windows driver, so I need to know how to call the windows library that controls the joystick. Any help is greatly appreciated!  Thanx!  -YB

As far as I'm aware, there isn't a windows library function that deals with joysticks. Get the DirectX API and use DirectInput functions to get something. I'd do it.

C language (3) I've been meaning to learn to write C this week, and I am wondering what site could help me. I
have a compiler (DJGPP) and I think it works since my older brother has compiled his C files with it
before. Is it better to learn C++ first rather than learn C? Is there a certain sub-forum for C /
C++ language here? What site would you suggest that I learn from?....
Turbo C++ Ide
Incompatible with Windows XP? (7) I've been looking back into ol' days lately, and doing some (primitive) coding in C++,
using some of those famous Borland Library Functions. So, I hooked up that blue editor (they call it

And it wasn't a nice ride in Windows XP environment... Whenever I run that DOS-Based Turbo C++
IDE (tc.exe), my processor usage jumps to a 100% constant, and the IDE runs real slow (Nice way to

Help: C++ And Midi Programming Under Windows
Programming for MIDI in Borland C++ 4.52 (0) Hi, I am starting an opensource Midi Squencer / Controller. I have already learned how to get
info on all the Midi devices on the system, and I have figured out how to send data to a Midi
device. My next step is figuring how to get Midi input. I have been trying everything in the help
files, but nothing I have done has worked. I am using the mmsystem.h header for all my low-level
Midi communication. It connects to the mmsystem.dll that is standard with windows.... so it should
be accessable to anyone with C++. Is there anyone out there that would like to see a qu....
