I'm writing an Application on the MacIntosh and I am trying to access
the low level interface to the mouse port.

This is so I can implement a `wrapping' feature--that is, if I tried
to move the mouse cursor too far to the right, it would show up on the
left hand side of the screen instead of stopping on the right.

Additionally, the current interval of updating the mouse co-ordinates
is too slow for my application.  It is 1/60th of a second--I need this
to be at least 1/1000th of a second.  How can I change this?  Inside
Macintosh does not provide any help for these low level kinds of
questions.

I had heard of a utility that does the wrapping, but couldn't find
anything obvious around.  Anyone in the know have some advice?
