% SetMouse(x, y [, windowPtrOrScreenNumber][, mouseid])
%
% Position the mouse cursor on the screen.
%
% The cursor position (x,y) is "local", i.e. relative to the origin of the
% window or screen, if supplied. Otherwise it's "global", i.e. relative to
% the origin of the main screen (the one with the menu bar).
%
% On Linux, the optional 'mouseid' parameter allows to select which
% of potentially multiple cursors should be repositioned. On OS/X and
% Windows this parameter is silently ignored.
%
% OS 9: ___________________________________________________________________
%
% After calling SetMouse, there's a short period (until the next tick?)
% during which GetMouse reports the old position, after which it reports
% the new position. To be conservative, you can code as follows:
% while 1
% SetMouse(theX,theY);
% [checkX,checkY] = GetMouse;
% if (checkX==theX) & (checkY==theY)
% break;
% end
% end
%
% Cursor updating is usually carried out by a System task that runs once
% per tick, so it's likely that SetMouse doesn't take effect until the
% next tick. Instead of the elaborate check suggested above, it might
% be enough, after calling SetMouse, to simply WaitTicks(1) before calling
% GetMouse to be sure of getting the new position.
%
% OS-X, Linux & WINDOWS:___________________________________________________
%
% Psychtoolbox will accept the optional windowPtrOrScreenNumber
% argument and check it for validity. However, supplying the argument will
% not influence the position of the mouse cursor. The cursor is always
% positioned in absolute coordinates on the main screen. It does not
% matter that the cursor is always positioned in absolute coordinates,
% because in Windows onscreen windows are always the full size of the
% display, absolute and relative coordinates are always the same. It would
% be good if SetMouse could position the mouse cursor on secondary
% displays, but we dont' support multiple displays yet in Windows.
%
% The delay between a call to SetMouse and when GetMouse will report the
% new mouse cursor position is not known. GetMouse seems to report the new
% position immediately, but we have no guarantee that it always will.
