Could you please verify where the article came from and how one can respond? Thanks, Werner. [ here follows the article .....] 8-May-84 02:15:13-CDT,732;000000000000 Date: Sun, 29 Apr 84 15:43 MST From: Kip Cole Subject: Foot Mice To avoid having to remove hands from the keyboard to use a mouse and change modes from mouse to keyboard, why not use a mouse with ones foot. The buttons could be either a heel and/or toe action (or even a chord device with the other foot). The foot-mouse could be used with either left or right foot and hands wouldn't have to leave the keyboard. After all we are four-limbed beings, and organists have been using them all quite satisfactorily for a long time now. Also, unlike most desk-tops, the space around ones feet is usually quite clear from obstruction. Any thoughts.....Kip Cole, Honeywell Australia. -------
