I can't even use a scroll wheel anymore! Only use mousey in IE5 for changing frames, haven't found a shortcut for that yet. In Pretz's GUI I've made sure I don't have to use mouseclicks anywhere. When I want to move a piece, I just hover the mouse over the from-square, wait a fraction of a second til the piece jumps as if by magnetism to the mousepointer, move the mouse/piece to the to-square, and after another fraction it falls into place automagically! How's that for convenience :) Paul
