- Is there any "nice" way of tracing mouse cursor movements?? For example,
- I have an application in which the user clicks on various areas of the
- screen etc... What I would like to do is track the mouse cursor and
- later on, "replay" the movements of the mouse. A brute force method
- would be to record the mouse cursor location at set intervals, then
- redraw the mouse cursor at the points recorded. This however, would
- create a "jerky" playback and secondly, require large disk space to
- store all the points! Any ideas or suggestions???? Please email
- responses to me directly at: png@dretor.dciem.dnd.ca

- Much thanx in advance. Cheers!
-
- Peter.
