Well, seeing that Amiga has a windowing system as is designed to use a
mouse, Voodoo was designed to work best in a mouse/keyboard mix. What
is your problem with this approach? I think it's a fast enough
interface, myself.

The slowest part of Voodoo is the same thing that makes it so
flexible, the datatypes, which unfortunately require me to use a lot
of temporary files instead of feeding the data through pipes or memory
buffers.
