=======================
    What is mousetweaks ?
=======================

    The mousetweaks package provides the functions offered by the
    Accessibility tab of the Mouse control panel. It also contains
    two panel applets related to the mouse accessibility. More
    particularly:

     1. It offers a way to perform the various clicks without using any
        hardware button. In this context, the Dwell Click panel applet
        can be used to choose what click type to perform.

     2. It allows users to perform a secondary click by doing a
        click&hold of the primary mouse button.

     3. It provides the Pointer Capture panel applet. This applet creates
        an area on the panel into which the pointer can be captured until
        the user releases it with a predefined button and modifier
        combination.
