Mach - Mouse Accelerator with Hotkey.

       The accelerator part is similar to QuickMouse from Gizmoz...BUT, it
       will accept an argument, a number 0-9, which sets its speed (only
       speeds 1-4 are very usable). 1 is the default, 0 is no acceleration.

       The hotkeys are:
            Left or Right-Alternate F1 - F10.
            Left-Alternate-Ctl-F1 to uninstall.

       They are defined in the command line following the accelerator
       argument. Definitions with embedded spaces should use "".

       Examples:

       run mach 2 df0: df1: dir copy "" "run sys:system/rollodex"
         this maps
           df0: to f1
           df1: to f1
           dir  to f3
           copy to f4
           nothing to f5
           run sys:system/rollodex to f6

       run mach 3 "Joe Foo" "512 West 3rd St." "The Trees, ID 83703"
         this maps
           Joe Foo to f1
           512 etc. to f2
           The Trees etc. to f3

       Note that anything after a semicolon is treated as a comment.
       When you reach the end of the line, don't hit return and you can
       continue mapping up to 255 characters (including the "run mach 2").
       You can also put this in your startup-sequence. (Of course you can't
       endcli if you do this (unless you use runback)). Sorry, no arguments
       from the icon...yet.

       If you do "stack 2000" before you start Mach, it will use only 10k.
       Be sure to reset your stack to 4000 or higher after this.
       To keep this program small, there are no messages, no prompts, no
       nothing. If, however, for any reason it fails to run (e.g. no free
       signals, no input.device??) it will use a return code of 10 or
       higher.
