Does Anyone have any Idea how you would scan the position of the mouse from within a class? Example: Class Mouse { Public: Scan(); // this is what I want. Private: int mousex, mousey; // Mouse coords. } Mouse::Scan() { // In here the mouse coords would be stored in mousex/mousey. } Did that make sense? (P.S. I Am STRONGLY against using GLUT, even though it does have mouse functions) ----------------------------- Blue*Omega (Insert Witty Quote Here)

Check out directinput...

SDL! the 1.1 develpment(stable) has opengl routines much like glut, but they are faster and make porting to other operating systems really easy.

SDL_PumpEvents();
SDL_GetMouseState(&mouse_x, &mouse_y);

it can be that easy
