517.0. "Joystick fire-button" by MOVIES::FORSTER () Fri Jun 23 1989 09:33

    Anyone know how I can detect the joystick fire-button ? I have successfully
    written code to detect joystick movement, but the bits the documentation 
    say represent fire-button status remain zero. Of course, the Abacus
    book got the joystick status packet size wrong anyway.
