I use both the mouse and the keyboard, the mouse for fine movements, the keys
for speed. (I prefer to use one bullet per demon! - That's if they can be
killed with one bullet. OK I try to use the least amount of ammo.) My fimgers
don't need to move, during action. Of course they need to move during saving,
loading, viewing the map, cheating ;-)......
