- _m_o_u_s_e allows the user to modify mouse acceleration, mapping (left- or
- right-handed), and click speed (delay between clicks in a double-click).
-
- The user can launch this panel from the toolchest (Desktop > Customize >
- Mouse) or at a Unix shell command line. Like most other customization
- panels, the mouse panel has the ``runonce'' feature, meaning only one
- instance of the application will run at one time. Attempting to launch
- the application a second time will have the effect of deiconifying the
- application window or popping it to the top on the current desk.
-
- For mouse acceleration, the Finer Control button allows the user to
- change acceleration and threshold sliders independently. The
- acceleration slider controls how many times faster the mouse pointer will
- travel when it moves more than some number of pixels in a short time; the
- threshold slider controls that number of pixels.
-
- If both the acceleration and threshold sliders are set all the way to the
- right, then the mouse pointer will travel far across the screen when
- moved just slightly. If both the acceleration and threshold sliders are
- set all the way to the left, then the mouse pointer will travel only a
- few pixels when moved, and the user will need to move the mouse over many
- pixels to obtain that small shift in the pointer's position. If the
- acceleration is zero, then the mouse pointer will always move the same
- distance across the screen, no matter how fast or slowly the user flicks
- the mouse.
-
- The acceleration and threshold values corresponding to each of the radio
- buttons have been modified between IRIX 5.3 and IRIX 6.2. The IRIX 6.2
- mouse panel supports a wider variety of mouse hardware, including the new
- Logitech mouse provided with SGI's Impact platform.
-
- For more information about the entire IRIX Interactive Desktop
- environment and about the XXXXUUUUSSSSEEEERRRRFFFFIIIILLLLEEEESSSSEEEEAAAARRRRCCCCHHHHPPPPAAAATTTTHHHH environment variable, see
- the IID(1) man page.

- The mouse panel does not read from any files. Most user settings are
- changed into _x_s_e_t commands and written to the file $_H_O_M_E/._d_e_s_k_t_o_p-
- <_h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e>/_p_a_n_e_l_s_e_s_s_i_o_n. The commands stored in this file are executed by
- /_u_s_r/_l_i_b/_X_1_1/_x_d_m/_X_s_e_s_s_i_o_n._d_t at the start of the user's session. Because

- the double-click speed setting is an Xt resource, it is saved in
- $_H_O_M_E/._S_g_i_r_e_s_o_u_r_c_e_s, which is treated like a ._X_d_e_f_a_u_l_t_s file.
-
- The ._S_g_i_r_e_s_o_u_r_c_e_s file is not intended to be edited directly by end
- users. If, for example, the user edits the file and makes the
- ****mmmmuuuullllttttiiiiCCCClllliiiicccckkkkTTTTiiiimmmmeeee resource too small (smaller than 90), then after logging
- out and logging back in the user may be unable to double-click. If this
- happens, launching Desktop > Customize > Mouse on the toolchest and
- selecting the Slow radio button under Click Speed should make the mouse
- more responsive.
