We have a user who wants a slow mouse. In X, you can use the xset command with the m option. I use the following in my .fvwmrc: Popup "Mouse" Title "Mouse Settings" Exec "Very Fast" exec xset m 7 10 & Exec "Normal (Fast)" exec xset m 3 10 & Exec "System Default" exec xset m default & Exec "Glacial" exec xset m 0 10 & EndPopup With gpm, you can use the -a, -r, and perhaps -d options. Check the man pages for xset and gpm. -- John GOTTS <jgotts@engin.umich.edu> http://www-personal.engin.umich.edu/~jgotts Intern, Powertrain Control Systems, Scientific Research Labs, Ford Motor Co.
