I need to locate a special keyboard that was experimented with a
few years ago.  It looked like a large 'mouse' with lots of buttons.
A person used one hand to generate the full ASCII character set by
hitting the various buttons.  As I recall there were 3 under each finger
and two under the thumb.
The one I saw in an article plugged in to a normalyboard
input on a IBM PC.

Any help finding one of these would be greatly appreciated.

Please e-mail bigjohn@manta.nosc.mil

thanks!
