Mach - Mouse Accelerator with Hotkey.
The accelerator part is similar to QuickMouse from Gizmoz...BUT, it
will accept an argument, a number 0-9, which sets its speed (only
speeds 1-4 are very usable). 1 is the default, 0 is no acceleration.
The hotkeys are:
Left or Right-Alternate F1 - F10.
Left-Alternate-Ctl-F1 to uninstall.
They are defined in the command line following the accelerator
argument. Definitions with embedded spaces should use "".
Examples:
run mach 2 df0: df1: dir copy "" "run sys:system/rollodex"
this maps
df0: to f1
df1: to f1
dir to f3
copy to f4
nothing to f5
run sys:system/rollodex to f6
run mach 3 "Joe Foo" "512 West 3rd St." "The Trees, ID 83703"
this maps
Joe Foo to f1
512 etc. to f2
The Trees etc. to f3
Note that anything after a semicolon is treated as a comment.
When you reach the end of the line, don't hit return and you can
continue mapping up to 255 characters (including the "run mach 2").
You can also put this in your startup-sequence. (Of course you can't
endcli if you do this (unless you use runback)). Sorry, no arguments
from the icon...yet.
If you do "stack 2000" before you start Mach, it will use only 10k.
Be sure to reset your stack to 4000 or higher after this.
To keep this program small, there are no messages, no prompts, no
nothing. If, however, for any reason it fails to run (e.g. no free
signals, no input.device??) it will use a return code of 10 or
higher.
