I take the point that foot driven devices cannot be controlled accurately
enough for use as a direct mouse replacement, but how about something
simple. 1 pedal or similar to rock back and forth and control scrolling
up or down only. I think this might be a great help when browsing files
or looking for the precise bit to hack, and should be no more difficult
to operate that the average car clutch pedal.
