THE FOLLOWING ARE EXCERPTS FROM THE DOCUMENTATION OF MENUKEYS
MENUKEY is a software system for using the mouse with an application
program, such as Lotus 1-2-3 or WordPerfect, which is designed to use
only the keyboard. MENUKEY provides users with customizable,
button-activated "popup" menus which operate "on top of" the
application's original control structure. MENUKEY works by translating
mouse motion and button presses into cursor key sequences. MENUKEY is a
way to make great programs better, by giving them the convenience of
mouse control.
The MENUKEY system was designed to be used with programs that do not
already provide support for the mouse. It will not work with programs
which already use the mouse, or which use graphics modes. There are
also a few programs which handle the keyboard in non-standard ways, and
these may not work with MENUKEY.
MENUKEY is functionally compatible with Microsoft's Mouse Menu language...
...To use MENUKEY, you need an IBM PC or compatible, and DOS version 2.0 or
later. Before attempting to use AMENU, it is necessary to have a Microsoft
compatible driver for your mouse or pointing device installed in
memory. AMENU will not work without a mouse driver.

Cliff's note: I found this program bundled with a Zenix mouse.
This is one well-thought out program, and is very helpful at a
crucial juncture in PC-Shakespeare. Thank you to Laboratory
Computer Systems in Cambridge, Massachusetts for permitting me
to use its AMENU TSR for two of PC-Shakespeare's menus.
