	Hi Y'all,

	When using a Macintosh, One has the option of changing the mouses
characteristics. Specifically, one can choose whether it moves in one to
one correspondence with movement of the mouse, or whether the pointer moves
faster with increased speed (logarithmically).
	My question is this: Would it be possible to change the STs handling
of the mouse using the VDI calls vex_motv or vex_curv? I want to change the
characteristic for ALL programs, not just the current one. Obviously this
would only work if the changes lived on after the program was exited (as in
changing the keyboard map). Does this get reset after program exit?
