Program Description:
This is a handy program for mouses (Note: This is the correct plural for the
pointing device regarded as a "mouse."). It emulates cursor strokes and the
return key. In addition, if both keys are pressed, handy DOS menu pops up that
enables user to switch to a drive, enter a DOS command, or start a program.
Program Requirements:
≡ A mouse w/ at least two buttons
≡ Mouse software that is compatible w/ Microsoft Spec's
Enclosed Files:
≡ The compiled menu program <DosMouse.MNU
≡ The source code <DosMouse.Def> so that you can tweak it
for your needs
≡ This file <DosMouse.Doc>
Comments:
1. Refer to the source code's comments to adjust the spec's.
2. By accident, I discovered an undocumented feature of
writing mouse menus. YOU CAN SET DIFFERENT COLORS.
Maybe my manual is old, and the rest of the world knew
this. But, I was really excited to see that colors can
be added. For , the menu appears as White letters on a
Blue background. The cursor is Black letters on a Red
background
3. In this release version, I've assumed that you are using
standard DOS commands & that your programs are enabled
by the following .BAT files:
Word Processor W.BAT
Telecommunications T.BAT
Spreadsheet S.BAT
Utility Program N.BAT
My apologies if you use another utility program, e.g.,
MACE utilities. Remember, I wrote this for my own
needs.
To Enable Menu:
Assuming you're in the proper directory, type the
following @ the DOS prompt:
C:> menu dosmouse
Disclaimers, etc.:
Blah-Blah-Blah. Standard refusal to take responsibility
for something that happens to YOU in using MY program.
If you download it, it's your COPY. This is a SHAREWARE
program. Send me $1 (I'm counting on VOLUME) if this
program greatly helps you. Cont act me @ the above
address if you need assistance or have further
questions. Keep this copy, make more for your friends,
relatives, colleagues, peers, enemies, etc. NEVER make
any changes w/o discrediting me.
