The source code for BeebEm is freely available. I have had a look at 
implementing AMX mouse emulation in BeebIt in the past and it would not be too 
hard, I just haven't done it. Currently the mouse emulates a joystick on 
BeebIt.

If you want to know something about BeebIt can you contact me directly please? 
You would get an answer quicker that way.

Cheers,

Mike.
