I hope that this subject has not been brought up numerous times before,
but is there any way to effectively use an IBM style joystick up to an ST?

I noted with the recent purchase of a flight simulator, that the old atari
'switch' style joystick is not sufficient to effectively simulate a flight
stick.  I have noted that many of the newer flight simulators are allowing for
a mouse link-up, and this type of data check might permit for the use of a
variable position stick like those used on the IBM's.

Any hints?
