Mouse Odometer Version 2.0
(C) Copyright 1993 TOGGLE BOOLEANS
All rights reserved.
Ever wonder how much mileage your mouse accumulates?
The Mouse Odometer keeps track of how far the cursor moves
and allows you to relate that to how far you actually move the
mouse on your desk.
The first thing to do is to choose Preferences from the
Odometer menu. In the dialog box which appears, enter the distance
that your mouse travels in order to move the cursor vertically
and horizontally across the screen. The default value is
three inches which is appropriate for most mice.
The best way to determine the values is to move the cursor to
the left side of the screen then mark the position where your mouse
is on your mouse pad. Then move the mouse horizontally until the
mouse is at the right side of the screen and then see how far the
mouse travelled. Enter the distance, in inches, into the dialog box
and then do the same for the vertical distance.
When you start the Mouse Odometer, the default unit of measurement
is in terms of pixels. You can also specify inches, feet, miles,
centimeters, meters or kilometers.
Version 2.0 adds the ability to view statistics about how many
mouse clicks and keystrokes you have made. The Statistics dialog
box can be accessed either from the Mouse Odometer menu or by
clicking on the Statistics button in the Preferences dialog.
The statistics window shows both the total and the daily
average for each category of mouse click and keystroke. Note that the
'Days Since Last Reset' starts counting from the time that you press
the Reset button. For example, if you reset today at 2:00pm,
it will read 'zero' days until 2:01pm tomorrow.
In general, it's a good idea to put the Mouse Odometer in your
Start Up group so that it starts up every time you run Windows.
