    Introduction    

GMouseTool is a program that assists in the recovery and prevention of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). The program tracks your mouse movements and when you stop the mouse over any object a click is sent.

It is possible to configure the GMouseTool to send left, right and double-clicks to any application. You can use GMouseTool to drag-and-drop objects too.

GMouseTool is developed using GTK+ and is under the GPL license. As You may have noticed this page is based on GTK+'s home page.

    Contributing    

GMouseTool is a work in progress and there are too may things to be done. So, if you have any bug or sugestion to make, please report it.

I promise to answer your questions, enhancement requests and bug reports as quickly as I can. Please remember that GMouseTool is my hobby, not my "day job," and I have spouse, family and tendonitis. Thus, I ask your patience if I take a few days to respond.

Origins

MouseTool was initially developed for windows by Jeff Roush in 2000.

In 2002 Jeff did a version of MouseTool to KDE named KMouseTool. This version is very limited. Now, KMouseTool is part of the kdeaccessibility package.

And as I am a Gnome user and I like the windows version of MouseTool, so I decided to port MouseTool to Gnome. You can visit Jeff's site at http://www.mousetool.com
