LazyMouse
saving your arm
one dialog at a time
LazyMouse is a Preference Pane that moves your cursor to the default button whenever a dialog box appears on your screen. In other words, it will save you time moving the mouse to dismiss dialogs.
New in LazyMouse 2.0: Snap Back the cursor after dismissing a dialog!
System Requirements:
LazyMouse requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later to run. It should work on any Macintosh that will support Mac OS X 10.4, including Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.
OS 9:
LazyMouse will not work in Mac OS 9. Not because we're so lazy, but because Edenware already beat us to it. Their utility, "Snap-To", will do what you want.
What's new with LazyMouse 2.0
• LazyMouse can now snap the cursor back to the place it was before a dialog appeared when you dismiss the dialog.
• You can now choose to automatically snap to the Alternate button (usually "Cancel" or "No") instead of the default button.
• Sound feedback when the cursor is moved - a little twang sound gets played whenever the cursor is moved, off by default.
• Improved Preference Pane UI
• Many memory leak fixes
• A serious architecture switch
• Reduced CPU load
• Some code was possibly not intel-safe, though it never caused a problem - fixed
• LazyMouse will now turn itself off when a new version is installed - this didn't used to happen, so people who upgraded LazyMouse while it was on would end up still running the old background application until the next time they toggled or restarted LazyMouse. This may not work until the next minor upgrade, though.
• Much different register reminder - only appears when LazyMouse does its thing - much smaller and less distracting.
• When instructing the user to turn on access for assistive devices, LazyMouse now brings up a drawer that acts as a step-by-step tutor.
• There was a strange bug in Garageband where the cursor would snap to a place on the window where there was no button. This has been handled.
• Fixed some obscure crashing bugs
• updated links to point to old-jewel.com rather than oldjewelsoftware.com
