mouseadmin(1)                    UNIX System V                    mouseadmin(1)


NAME
      mouseadmin - mouse administration

SYNOPSIS
      mouseadmin [ -nbl ] [ -d terminal ] [ -a terminal mouse]

DESCRIPTION
      mouseadmin allows any user with system administrator privileges to add or
      delete mouse devices.  Users without "superuser" privileges will only be
      allowed to list the current mouse/display assignments.  The mouseadmin
      command issued without arguments will execute in menu mode, providing the
      user with a listing of current assignments and a selection menu of
      operations.

OPTIONS
      The command line arguments are defined as follows:

       -n     build mouse/display pair table without downloading to driver.
              (This option should only be used within install scripts.)

       -b     do not validate for BUS mouse in system configuration.  (This
              option should only be used within install scripts.)

       -l     list mouse/display assignments.

       -d     delete terminal assignment.

       -a     assign mouse device (PS2, BUS, tty00, s0tty0, etc.) to terminal
              (console, s0vt00, etc.).

              When using the -a option, the mouseadmin command format is:

                mouseadmin -a terminal mouse_device

              For example:

                mouseadmin -a console PS2
                mouseadmin -a console BUS
                mouseadmin -a s0vt00 tty00
                mouseadmin -a s0vt00 tty01
