When General Patton died after World War 2 he went to the gates of Heaven to talk to St. Peter. The first thing he asked is if there were any Marines in heaven. St. Peter told him no, Marines are too rowdy for heaven. He then asked why Patton wanted to know. Patton told him he was sick of the Marines overshadowing the Army because they did more with less and were all hard-core sons of bitches. St. Peter reassured him there were no Marines so Patton went into Heaven. As he was checking out his new home he rounded a corner and saw someone in Marine Dress Blues. He ran back to St. Peter and yelled "You lied to me! There are Marines in heaven!" St. Peter said "Who him? That's just God. He wishes he were a Marine."

Uh, there''s documentation all over the place. Button0 is left, Button1 is right, Button2 is middle.

I''m sure they do; it would be on MSDN.

It is on MSDN, and in fact it appears I'm wrong. My wrapper used button0 for left and I assumed DirectInput did, but actually Button0 is right and Button1 is left... according to the comments on this MSDN tutorial.

EDIT: Actually my code is totally different from this... I guess DirectX9 does input much differently. Apparently my code uses the DirectX5 version of DirectInput, and in it, rgbButtons[0] is the left button, [1] is right, etc.
