This is a Commodore supplied utility (AMouse), and it works really well.  I
have used it with DPaint on the PC side (just for testing folks, of course
I'd use DPaint on the Amiga side for work!) and with Microsoft Windows.

The software allows one mouse to control EITHER the Amiga pointer or
the DOS pointer (switchable through a key sequence).  It also allows you
to use two mice (one for each).
