Mouse Odometer Version 2.0 (C) Copyright 1993 TOGGLE BOOLEANS All rights reserved. Ever wonder how much mileage your mouse accumulates? The Mouse Odometer keeps track of how far the cursor moves and allows you to relate that to how far you actually move the mouse on your desk. The first thing to do is to choose Preferences from the Odometer menu. In the dialog box which appears, enter the distance that your mouse travels in order to move the cursor vertically and horizontally across the screen. The default value is three inches which is appropriate for most mice. The best way to determine the values is to move the cursor to the left side of the screen then mark the position where your mouse is on your mouse pad. Then move the mouse horizontally until the mouse is at the right side of the screen and then see how far the mouse travelled. Enter the distance, in inches, into the dialog box and then do the same for the vertical distance. When you start the Mouse Odometer, the default unit of measurement is in terms of pixels. You can also specify inches, feet, miles, centimeters, meters or kilometers. Version 2.0 adds the ability to view statistics about how many mouse clicks and keystrokes you have made. The Statistics dialog box can be accessed either from the Mouse Odometer menu or by clicking on the Statistics button in the Preferences dialog. The statistics window shows both the total and the daily average for each category of mouse click and keystroke. Note that the 'Days Since Last Reset' starts counting from the time that you press the Reset button. For example, if you reset today at 2:00pm, it will read 'zero' days until 2:01pm tomorrow. In general, it's a good idea to put the Mouse Odometer in your Start Up group so that it starts up every time you run Windows.
