NAME

       mouse_update - updates the mouse state

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vgamouse.h>

       int mouse_update(void);

DESCRIPTION

       This  reads  in mouse events from the mouse buffer and updates the internal svgalib variables which store
       the current mouse position and button states. If there are no events to  be  read  this  routine  returns
       immediately.

       The function returns 0 if there was no event and a non-zero value otherwise.
