Subject: Mouse buttons and Libqueue library


	I am writing a text-based GUI system (not as complete as Turbo Vision
though) and am Using the Event Queue Library (comes with GRX). Now for 
the question:
		I need to check the current button status of the mouse buttons
WITHOUT getting an event... this is necessary as I am handling Drag motions,
but moving the Mouse does not cont as an event....

	any ways, any help on how to query the mouse buton status without an
event is what I need to Know how to do.... I would prefer to work with the
EventQueue Library, not work around it as I am somewhat inexpeirenced 
with  low-level coding....

P.S. if any one s interested, I can give yo the soure to my GUI lib, its 
a C++ library where you derive classes off of a base class (creativly 
called window) and you override the Message functions (OnButtonUp, 
OnKeyPress,ect) Currently I've got editor windows working (with Scroll bars),
Menus( nested menus too) and various "special effects"
