This Program is EMAIL-Ware. This means: If you find it worth to use it, please send me a mail with your comments or suggestions or also with bugreports. INSTALLATION: ------------- Just place the executable file somewhere in your path, e.g. SYS:c . That's all. USAGE: ------ You just have to execute it via any cli console or from a script with the required parameter 0 or 1; where 0 means the std. mouse port and 1 means the std. game port. The Programm will neither return any error messages nor any type of acknowledge. Either it works, or not :-) Background: ----------- This Programm just activates a feature which is already present since pre 2.x OS versions of the AmigaOS. The 'input.device'- called input routines of AmigaOS allows to use mouses, digiltal joysticks and also analog joysticks connected via port 0 or port 1 to be used for moving the mouse pointer in all system-compatible programms. bye.
