I recently got my A1000 out of the shop (after 4 months or so) and
immediately downloaded DMouse, version 1.07.  It's a great utility and
everything I use it for works great, with one minor exception.  I
would like to know if anyone else has experienced this problem.  My
startup-sequence is rather standard (copy a few files to RAM:, set
date, conman, dmouse, etc) and the last thing it does is close the
CLI.  Normally, one would do something with the mouse before reopening
a CLI, but every once in awhile, the FIRST thing I do is hit ALT-ESC.
Voila!  Nothing happens.  I have traced it to not moving the mouse at
least once before trying to open a new CLI.  I have tested it several
times and every time I move the mouse (no matter how slightly), the
CLI comes up.  This is really only a minor inconvenience, but it has
aroused my curiosity.  Any comments?  Thanks in advance.
