- NAME:
- AUTOPORT
-
- USAGE:
- in CLI/Shell:
- type
- 'AUTOPORT <return>'
-
- place it in your startup-sequence !
-
- remove it by typing in some CLI :
-
- 'AUTOPORT <return>'
-
- on WorkBench:
- DoubleClick on Icon to start or stop it
-
- under DOS/WB 2.0 just drag the icon into the
- WBStartup-drawer
-
- FUNCTION:
- I use a trackball plugged into the second mouseport
- and the original mouse into the first port.
- AUTOPORT switches the port to be used by the
- Input.device each time one moves either mouse or
- trackball.
- so ball and mouse can be used as if they were both
- plugged into the first port.
-
- BUGS:
- hangup if spawned by another process (e.g. SID)
- problems when another task needs the ports (games...)
-
