Twitchy_Mouse 1.0

Flee-Ware
if you've got flees, just keep 'em.


BACKGROUND 

After getting the Amiga Designer mouse, I found that the pointer
would wobble occasionally when the mouse was still.  As trivial
as it sounds, it interfered with scrolling, with "MouseBlanker" 
and "Blanker".

I called up the retailer, and they sent me another, thinking it was
a defective mouse.  The second mouse exhibited the same behaviour, though
my original A-4000 mouse did not, so that eliminated the likelihood of a
CIA failure.

So Twitchy Mouse was born.  Essentially, it "smoothes" out the mouse input,
so that the twitches essentially disappear, and removes those input events
that would cause the mouse to move.   

Twitchy Mouse is a commodity, and all is done in a system friendly way 
through the Commodity system.

This is not a hack, no system code is replaced/kludged/patched.

USAGE

Drop TM's icon in the WBStartup drawer.  It supports 1 Tooltype, CX_Priority.
CX_Priority should be higher than any other commodity that effects or 
monitors the mouse, such as MouseBlanker or and screen blanker.

Using Exchange, you can have TM open a window that flashes when twitches
are detected.

The source is included, primarily so that it may be proofed, but anyone is 
free to use it as they se fit.
