	A couple of postings have mentioned programs that responded slowly
to the mouse's left button.  My version of Degas is notorious.  When I am
trying to quit, it ask's are you sure and has a little OK box.  I'll click
and click on that box before it responds.  Then, when it does responds and
puts up the regular menu, I may still be clicking furiously away and click
on some other command by mistake.
	Well, I remembered reading something about keyboard sequences
that correspond to mouse functions in the manual that came with my computer.
ALT INSERT correspond to clicking that button.  With some experimentation
I found that, after positioning over the OK box, if I hold those keys down
for a second, when I let up, the program responds.
	I just thought I'd pass this on for anybody who has any program with
this little glitch in it.
Regards,
Carl Weidling
