Next time, please show, what effort you already put into finding the 
right answer yourself. `git log src/mouse.c` and `git grep mouse.c` and 
`git grep MOUSE` already shows quite a lot.

```
     config MOUSE
         bool "Mouse interface"
         default y
         help
             Support for int15c2 mouse calls.
```

Then search for that BIOS interrupt call [1].

So, it’s my understanding, that the BIOS interface allows to control a 
mouse pointer using the BIOS interrupt call 15.C2.

Programs and operating systems like Microsoft DOS use that to drive the 
mouse.


Kind regards,

Paul
