  12. The following seems quite desirable to me:                                      
  13. A simple FKEY / control panel / extension that would let you                    
  14. define a hot key as "lock mouse button down". In other words,                   
  15. you could type control-option-command-M (or whatever) and it                    
  16. would have the effect of making the system think the mouse button               
  17. was being held down continuously, until you either hit the                      
  18. real mouse button or take some other action other than                          
  19. just mouse movement. Anyone know if there is such a thing?
