- Short: Puts Mouse Pointer anywhere on screen

-
-
- CPointer 2.2a is a simple utility that will centre the mouse pointer on boot-up and
- much more.
-
- v2.2a improves MClick and DClick functionality. Works the same, just better.
-
-
- Features:
-
- - Will centre the mouse pointer on any size screen.(Default)
- - User defined co-ordinates can be set.
- - Left mousebutton can be activated with delay.
- - Double-click can be emulated.
- - Works with GFX cards.
-
-
- NOTE:
- *****
-
- CPointer is CLI only. It would become un-neccessarily bigger with
- Tooltypes and all. Anyway, putting CPointer in your Startup-Sequence will
- have it activated sooner.
-
-
- Usage:
-
- C:CPointer XPOS/N YPOS/N MCLICK/N DCLICK
-
- XPOS = X position on screen (number required)
- YPOS = Y position on screen (number required)
- MCLICK = Click left mouse button after so many ticks. (50 ticks = 1 second. 60 if NTSC)
- Good for activating a screen like WorkBench after boot. 0-600 allowed (0 to 10 seconds)
- DCLICK Works with MCLICK. Will execute a double click. This could be used to have the
- pointer double-click on an icon to run it. Use your imagination :)
-
- Installation:
-
- 1) Dump CPointer to your C: dir.
-
- 2) Fire up your favorite text editor.
-
- 3) Now, just before LoadWB add this line:
-
-
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Run >NIL: C:CPointer XPOS/N YPOS/N MCLICK=<delay> DCLICK (see below for explanation)
-
- C:LoadWB
-
- EndCli >NIL:
-
-
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Examples:
-
- Run >NIL: C:CPointer ; This will centre the mouse pointer on the current screen
-
- Run >NIL: C:CPointer MCLICK ; This will centre the mouse pointer aswell as activate the current screen.
-
- Run >NIL: C:CPointer MCLICK=250 ; Centre Mouse Pointer on screen. Click left mouse button 4.5 seconds
- after Cpointer is run.
-
- Run >NIL: C:CPointer XPOS=100 YPOS=200 MCLICK=250 DCLICK ; Position mouse at 100,200 and double click
- left mouse button after 4.5 seconds.
-
- You get the idea......
-
-
-
- IF THE XPOS OR YPOS IS GREATER THAN THE SCREEN LIMITS THE MOUSE POINTER WILL BE CENTRED.
-
-
- Now on every boot, your mouse pointer will be centred on your Workbench
- Screen. Put over an icon or icon bay. Run a program through it's icon.
- Do what you will. :)
