Re: Mouse wheel is now supported in vDos-lfn

[Harry Binswanger hb@xxxxxxxx]

Jordan,

I have used a ton of mice. The one I like best is the Microsoft Explorer
Mouse, because it has the tilting wheel plus two extra thumb buttons. And
because it has the highest hand comfort.


Regards,
Harry


What mouse are you using, Harry ?
I've been using the Logitech Trackman cordless model for quite some
time. Left / Right buttons, center wheel, trackball. The wheel does
_not_ tilt . . . and I don't recall seeing mice where it did. But I
stopped looking at other models when I settled on this one, which has
suited me perfectly.

Wengier,

Works perfectly! And because I have use LU and LD, it behaves that way.

My next request is for tilting the mousewheel left or right (for those who
have a mouse that can do that) to move the cursor left and right. I made a
log of what happened when I did the tilts. I did 3 rights then 3 lefts) but
it doesn't look auspicious. I may have also moved the wheel a little up and
down while tilting it.

Come to think of it, I can probable get Autohotkey to take care of this.

Regards,
Harry
