| Re: .0
It sounds like you typed control-F3 by mistake: the Wait LED lights up and
the arrow keys move the mouse cursor instead of being sent to DECterm. Type
control-F3 again to toggle back to the normal arrow key mode.

| Well, a dir/tit=mouse/all yielded the following likely suspects, but it took
a powerfull long time to do it. Points up some of the shortcomings of the
notes program...
1879 RDF::RDF 10-DEC-1989 2 arrow keys now move mouse..
1708 DEALER::WESTMORELAND 9-NOV-1989 1 Mouse buttons go dead!

There seems to be a handful of questions that keep coming up; let's
call them "common problems." Now, admittedly, some people might not
bother with looking at a directory first. However, as Bob points out,
it took him "a powerful long time" (I like that! :-) to find pointers,
and he looked for the word "mouse." Also, geographically, he is not
far from the notes file.
Perhaps we could have one note, say, the "Common Problems" note, to
which the replies could be a statement of the common problems and the
solutions. We could have a keyword "Common Problems" pointing to the
note, and maybe even put a reference to the note in the greeting banner
one sees when opening the conference.
Just a thought ...
