       mouseadmin(1)                                          mouseadmin(1)


       NAME
             mouseadmin - mouse administration

       SYNOPSIS
             mouseadmin -l
             mouseadmin [-nb] [-i interrupt] [-a terminal]  mouse
             mouseadmin [-nb] [-d terminal]
             mouseadmin -t

       DESCRIPTION
             mouseadmin allows any user with system administrator
             privileges to add or delete mouse devices.  Users without
             appropriate privileges will only be allowed to list the
             current mouse and 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.  After configuring the mouse, choose the U
             option to update the mouse configuration and then quit.  Once
             the new mouse configuration has been updated, you can use the
             -t command line option or the T menu option to test the newly
             configured mouse.

       OPTIONS
             The command line arguments are defined as follows:

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

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

              -d     delete terminal assignment.

              -i     specify an interrupt vector for a BUS mouse.  When
                     using the -i option mouse must be BUS.

              -l     list mouse/display assignments.

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

              -t     test currently configured mouse.  If the mouse is
                     there and detected, the return will be 0; otherwise,
                     the return will be 1 or higher.
