- USER INFORMATION:
-
- *********************************************************
- Note to users UPGRADING FROM VERSION 1.2 of Mouse2:
- In the current version, the file "Mouse2 INIT" is no longer needed. So when
- you upgrade by putting the new v1.4 "Mouse2" file in your System Folder please
- REMOVE YOUR "Mouse2 INIT" FILE (from the earlier version) at the same time.
- *********************************************************
-
- To use:
- Put the file "Mouse2" in your System Folder. Double speed selection (what I
- call "overdrive") will then be available in your control panel by selecting the
- (new) "Mouse2" icon in the scrolling device list.
-
- To remove this feature from the system, just remove the "Mouse2" file from your
- System Folder and reboot (The programs do not create any files and do not
- modify any other files so your system will be exactly back to normal).
-
-
- Notes:
- The fast-tracking mode gives you a strict doubling of the tracking speed. It
- doesn't just add a "6th gear" to the standard 5 speeds, but doubles the variety
- of speeds (like the front sprockets on a 10-speed bicycle). For instance, if
- you need strictly linear motion but find the standard "very slow (tablet)" mode
- a crawl, then leave it in tablet mode (for linearity) but kick in the
- overdrive.
-
- The Mac Plus's mouse is different, so it won't be affected up by this utility
- (it is a FEATURE of this program that it will not have any (i.e. negative)
- effect if you put it on a Mac Plus system by mistake).
-
- I don't know what effect it will have on 1) non-Apple mice; 2) "mouse-like"
- devices, like joysticks; and 3) future models of Macintosh, even if they have
- ADB. (With the joystick I have, it seems to have no effect [which is fine
- because that F-16 flies fast enough as it is...])
-
- Enjoy!
