Hi vr, This is really excellent. I made the changes that you recommended and now I am capturing mouse events in addition to keyboard events. I have one remaining question. I recall that there was a way to specify that mouse movements would not be captured, but everything else that was mouse-related, in particular mouse clicks, would be captured. I checked https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/setconsolemode but could not find it. I know that programmatically I can filter out mouse movement events, but then there would be a huge amount of CPU time spent in doing so. Is there a value that can be "or"ed or "and"ed to the values already being sent to the mode () method that prevents mouse movement events from being detected? Thanks again for your solution.
