[Rpcemu] BASIC mouse-pointer issue

RPCEmu Version: 0.8.15 and later
Config: RPC-StrongARM/16MB/No VRAM/Sound Enabled

I'm not sure if this is an emulator bug or not but I've noticed that the
BASIC "MOUSE TO" command under RO3.71 changes the size of the pointer
instead of its location - specifically the 'x' argument has no effect and
the 'y' argument modifies the pointer's height.

To reproduce:
MOUSE ON:MOUSE TO 0,20

Kind Regards,
James

Thanks for this report, I've been able to reproduce it and am
investigating. Oddly the reduction in the size of the pointer is related
to the amount that is offscreen when moving TO the Y coord, e.g. MOUSE TO
0, 2 means you have an even smaller pointer.
This only affects 'Follow host mouse' mode, so if you need a temporary
workaround, use 'Capture Mouse' mode by deselecting 'Follow host mouse'
(0.8.100) or chosing Capture Mouse (0.8.15).
