Just from looking at the definition in SDL_mouse.h I gather you use it as a
mask against the current button state. If you're just responding to the
button down events you receive you don't need to use it (AFAIK)

Example I think might be:

  int button, x, y;

  button = SDL_GetMouseState (&x, &y);
  if (button & SDL_BUTTON(1))
     printf ("Button 1 is down, at (%d,%d)\n", x,y);
  if (button & SDL_BUTTON(2))
     printf ("Button 2 is down, at (%d,%d)\n", x,y);

SDL_GetMouseState() returns the button status as a bitmask, if you didn't
work that out from the above :-)

Hope this is the info you were looking for ...
