I was looking into using Csound for this. I'm happy with my microtonal sequencer, but I'd like to be able to add notes using the mouse. I'm in the process of setting it up with a tiny canvas, so that I can drag the canvas around my score, with a "ghost" note following it, and hit a key to turn the ghost note into a real note.
Is there an external somewhere that supports simply reading the position and clicks of the mouse, rather than using a canvas that only follows when the mouse button is held down?

what's wrong with [hid]?
if you need to be on w32, you could also try [gemmouse] (which only captures the Gem-window)

Yeah, I'm using Windows. I have access to OSX at school, but I do most of my work at home. HID does look interesting though. Thanks for the heads-up on [gemmouse], I'm exploring that now. I seem to remember GEM having no problem drawing arbitrary shapes, so I might be able to make a score with it. -Chuckk

Another possibility is the [tot] external, which reports mouse actions per subpatch.
