   What should I do about the buffer though? Like should I get them in say a 1Ch   
   handler to move the cursor in there?

   > I'm only using text mode at the moment as a test case. The plan is to only   
   have the mouse in graphics mode eventually. I didn't think of using AND, would   
   I do something like "and [mouse_x], 319" and would that also work if the value   
   is negative so it    
   will stay at zero?   
   Also, how do I scale down a number in assembly?
