Utility
Freeware, Atari ST/STe/TT/Falcon

The popular SilkMouse mouse accelerator programmed by Mark Slagell has 
been updated from v3.2 to v4.2 and re-released as freeware instead of 
shareware. This is the first update for three years and features a 
completely reworked acceleration algorithm. SilkMous is also fully 
compatible with serial mouse drivers.
Silkmous can be launched from the Auto folder or Desktop and configured 
using a separate PRG/ACC utility which offers several optional extras:
** BL on **
* Screen saver, there's a new "saver exemption" feature which allows up to 20 
programs which don't get along with screen savers to exempted.
* Function key debounce, when a [Shift] key is held down and two other 
adjacent keys are pressed together, many Atari keyboards erroneously 
report a [Shift]+[F1] or [Shift]+[F3] in addition to one or both of the 
keys actually pressed. If you've never noticed, it may be that you are 
an exceptionally, this option fixes it.
*  Screen-hold feature, you know the feeling, you run an unfamiliar 
program, it prints something on screen then disappears. Using this 
option holding the right mouse button down freezes the screen until 
you release the button, neat eh?
