Fixed bug #38 I'm using SDL 1.2.9 with Visual C++ 7.0 on Windows 2000. Here's the setup: my game starts in a window, with SDL_WM_GrabInput(SDL_GRAB_ON) to constrain the cursor to the game window. The mouse cursor is outside of the window when the game launches, and when the window appears the cursor is grabbed and placed at the top left corner of the inside of the game window. At this point, if I click the mouse without moving it, the SDL_MOUSEBUTTONDOWN event's mouse coordinates are (65535,65535).

To compile and install SDL:

    1.  Run './configure; make; make install'

        If you are compiling for Windows using gcc, read the FAQ at:
        http://www.libsdl.org/faq.php?action=listentries&category=4#42

        If you are compiling using Visual C++ on Win32, you should read
        the file VisualC.html

    2.  Look at the example programs in ./test, and check out the HTML
        documentation in ./docs to see how to use the SDL library.

    3.  Join the SDL developer mailing list by sending E-mail to
    	sdl-request@libsdl.org
        and put "subscribe" in the subject of the message.

        Or alternatively you can use the web interface:
            http://www.libsdl.org/mailing-list.php

That's it!
