Marion J Deland [72550,1733] published my suggestion in her newsletter. If you
can find it, there is a Gravis Mousestick for the Atari and Amiga that is
programmable. The Mousestick was really designed to 'beat' the arcade, fighter
plane games and/or simulations. It happens that you can also switch the X and
Y axis on it. Consequently, you could use this Mousestick to defeat the bug in
the Janus mouse drivers on certain graphical displays. The Mousestick will
also store settings.
Anyway, my serial port is a 16550a UART on my 386 bridgeboard which ort is
used by my external V.34 28800 Bocamodem. (I wouldn't turn around for the
difference now that I have my Bocamodem, but there are better choices–see PC
Magazine and/or ZiffNet.) I'm using OZCIS 2.0d as my program to interact with
CompuServe.
Talk nice to Marion for a sample of her newsletter!
