Wow! I have just got an information that N.AES uses the following two
functions in appl_tplay's mouse positioning: vsin_mode and vrq_locator.
Well, I would never expect something like that but I admit I am not a
VDI expert. The comments under these functions' descriptions in
Compendium are most interesting ("don't use or you confuse AES" :)
