+<sect2>Mouse callbacks<p>
+
+There are two mouse callbacks available.
+<p>
+The "text mode" callbacks (<tt/mouse_txt_callbacks/) display the mouse cursor as a "diamond" character
+on the standard "GRAPHICS 0" text mode screen. The mouse cursor character can be changed by an
+assembly file defining the character by exporting the zeropage symbol <tt/mouse_txt_char/.
+The default file looks like this:
+<tscreen><verb>
+        .export mouse_txt_char : zp = 96     ; 'diamond' screen code
+</verb></tscreen>
+<p>
+The "P/M" callbacks (<tt/mouse_pm_callbacks/) use Player-Missile graphics for the mouse cursor.
+The cursor shape can be changed, too, by an assembly file. Here's the default shape definition:
+<tscreen><verb>
+        .export mouse_pm_bits
+        .export mouse_pm_height    : zeropage
+        .export mouse_pm_hotspot_x : zeropage

+mouse_pm_height = * - mouse_pm_bits
+; hot spot is upper left corner
+mouse_pm_hotspot_x = 0
+mouse_pm_hotspot_y = 0
+</verb></tscreen>
+<p>
+<tt/mouse_pm_bits/ defines the shape of the cursor, <tt/mouse_pm_height/ defines the number of
+bytes in <tt/mouse_pm_bits/. <tt/mouse_pm_hotspot_x/ and <tt/mouse_pm_hotspot_y/ define the
+position in the shape where "the mouse points to". When using this callback page #6 (&dollar;600
+ - &dollar;6FF) is used for the P/M graphics data and no P/M graphics can otherwise be used
+by the program. The height of the shape (<tt/mouse_pm_height/)
+must not exceed 32 lines since the callback routines cannot handle more than 32 lines.
+<p>
+The default callbacks definition (<tt/mouse_def_callbacks/) is an alias for the "P/M" callbacks.
