Sorry for taking such a long time in responding, but I have been busy.

The mouse stuff works XP. The code fragment in THWMouse::THWMouse() as
outlined below detected NT on XP.

  char *OS=getenv("OS");
  // SET: NT reacts crashing when we use the mouse handler, don't know why
  // and personally don't care, so just disable the handler.
  if (OS && strcmp(OS,"Windows_NT")==0)
     use_mouse_handler=0;
