Ever tried Wrap INIT? A nifty utility that has been around in one form or
another for years. It allows you to scroll the cursor of the edge of the screen
and it appears on the other side, as if the screen wrapped right around.

It also worked top and bottom, so that when you went to the menu bar, oops, you
end up in the middle or the bottom of the screen! Every time. If you
concentrate, you would get it right, but hey: I don't want to concentrate, I
just want to DO IT!

If you did manage to hit the menu bar, but on the wrong menu, you have to
scroll horizontally in a corridor about 18 pixels high across the screen, with
no top edge to lean on. Reflex goes out the window then, and you  h a v e  t o 
t a k e  y o u r  t  i  m  e  . . . . zzzzzzzz.

My opinion: Like bobbing for goldfish.
