	Could someone out there in Amiga-land tell me how, if it is possible,
I can get a pointer to the current CLI window or WorkBench screen, in C.
	I am using Lattice C V4.0.
	I would also like to know exactly what Flags I must set in a window and
what message-class I must check for when I want to detect for either of the
mouse buttons being pressed. I have tried setting the MOUSEBUTTONS flag and
checking for a message of class SELECTUP, SELECTDOWN, MENUUP or MENUDOWN but
the computer just sits there grinning. I have overcome the problem
for now, by checking for window activation. Any help appreciated.
	Thanks in advance.
