NAME

       mouse_close - explicitly close a mouse

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vgamouse.h>

       void mouse_close(void);

DESCRIPTION

       Closes the mouse device file.  This should be called at the end of the program (if a mouse
       is used) because it tries to restore the original mouse state,  if  it  has  changed.   In
       particular  -  don't  call  mouse_init(), mouse_close(), mouse_init() this sequence is not
       going to work. Leave the mouse device open until the end of the program.
