My heavy computer usage lately has aggravated my RSI (or OOS, whatever
you want to call it), and I am looking at some alternatives to keyboard
use.

Specifically, I want to reduce my keyboard usage while news reading.  I
often find myself skipping many articles, and end up pressing just a few
keys.

What I would like to do is use my foot pedals to generate keyboard events
for the couple of keys that I use most often.  

I have tried MacJoy, but this doesn't seem to work (probably generates
keyboard events at a level different to that required by Workbench).

Can anybody point me in the right direction (or tell me what I am doing
wrong in MacJoy).

Thanks in advance,

Mario
