Using the Three-Button Mouse
The mouse is a hand-operated locating device. A three-button mouse is available for
use with the system. Consult your application publication for the exact use of the
three-button mouse.
You can use the mouse to perform such functions as positioning a cursor, selecting
items from a menu, or moving around in your document much easier and faster than if
you used only the keyboard. The cursor moves exactly as you move the mouse on a
flat surface, such as a desktop.
With the mouse buttons, you can perform functions such as selecting and deselecting
options, extending your selection, or choosing a command. The precise function of your
mouse depends on the software you are using.
The mouse cable plugs into the mouse connector at the rear of the system.
