Several prime FKEY slots available *immediately* to the first person who
writes a Mouse Antifreeze FKEY for the Mac.  To my knowledge, TMON is the
only tool that provides Mouse Antifreeze.  An FKEY would be better than
a Menu Item in that it could be called from within almost any application
(with the possible exception of some game programs) as well as from the
Finder.  One doesn't need to be developing a new application to lock up
the mouse (i.e. not everyone needs TMON) -- I've seen HFS Folders that would
freeze the mouse whenever I attempted to open them!
 
By the way, I've heard there is a new FKEY manager (with an interface
similar to that provided by the Font/DA Mover) that allows FKEYS to be
copied between Systems and Files, deleted, renumbered, etc.  If anyone
has a copy, I'm sure many folks on the net would appreciate it if you
would post it.  Thanks.
