So I am writing an object that outputs the coordinates and related button pressed from the OS' mouse cursor. I am currently looking for a name. I don't want to name it "mouse" anything since the pointer can be controlled by a tablet, joystick, trackpad, etc. etc. So I am thinking of a good name. Here are some I thought of:

[systempointer] [systemcursor] [cursor]

I am thinking that [cursor] might be the best bet since its short and describes where the data is coming from. But there might be minor confusion between the cursor in a piece of text, and the cursor that is generally represented by an arrow and controlled by a mouse.

Any comments, suggestions, etc.?
