In Java, allows you to find out where the mouse in on the
screen, even when it is not over one of your apps.  This has
similar function to MouseInfo.getPointerInfo in Java 1.7+.
This class will work in any version of Java.
It uses JNI and a DLL, so it only works on Windows.
You must install the nativemouse.dll somewhere on the path.
Then your programs can find out the x and y position of the
mouse, [(0,0 is the upper left of the screen] at any time by
calling:
  Point p = com.mindprod.mouse.Mouse.getWhereMouseIsOnScreen()
Java and C source included.
You can test the program by typing:
  java -cp C:\ com.mindprod.mouse.Mouse
Where C:\ in where you installed the com/mindprod/mouse
directory.
The nativemouse.32.dll on nativemouse.64.dll must be on the path, e.g. in the current
directory. Check the system property
java.library.path for a list of possible places to put the
DLL.  See http://mindprod.com/applet/wassup.html
and http://mindprod.com/jgloss/properties.html
This program requires modules from the Microsoft C++ Express
12 run time library. Normally they should be automatically
statically included. However, if someone recompiled the JNI
C++ code without the /MT option, this code will not work
unless the vcredist_x86.exe Microsoft C++ Express 11 run time
library is preinstalled. You can download it from Microsoft
or CMP.

The symptom of this problem is an UnsatisfiedLinkError or a
