i wanted to do the same sort of thing. after talking to apratt@atari
and one of his cohorts, i used the vex_motv VDI function to reset
the motion vector. it works fine, but only moves the mouse after there
is some movement. ok for my application, perhaps not for yours.

trying to write directly to the ikbd met with zero success.

if you need a short piece of code to see how to do it, i'll be
happy tp post it here...
