SUMMARY

Function 24 sets the interrupt call mask and user subroutine address for mouse hardware interrupts. Subroutine calls using Function 24 allow the called routine to be reentrant; that is, the subroutine called can itself make interrupt calls.

Input                             Output

AX = 24                           AX = error status (-1 if error
                                       occurred)
CX = user interrupt call mask
ES:DX = user subroutine address
