Authors/Port authors:

Provides a device driver to send absolute mouse events into the OS/2 system. It has been specifically designed to ease the development and integration of   touch screen solutions into the OS/2 system. It provides an  application programming interface that conforms to the standard DosRead and  DosWrite functions and as such may be easily used from rexx procedures using  the charin and charout functions.

This software is distributed as compressed package. You have to download and manually install it; if prerequisites are required, you will have to manually install them too.

Manual installation

Program is distributed as ZIP package: download to temporary directory and unpack to destination folder. Copy the XSMOUSE.SYS device driver to your C:\OS2\BOOT directory. Look into your CONFIG.SYS file to determine which mouse device driver has been installed on your system. You may find AMOUSE.SYS or MOUSE.SYS and you need to add the STYPE=XSMOUSE$ parameter to that device driver statement and to insert the DEVICE=C:\OS2\BOOT\XSMOUSE.SYS device driver statement just above it. Restart your system. After that XSMOUSE$ will be the device driver name to be used. See below for download link(s).
