PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
* Loads your mouse into the "virtual" Mode.
* 2 or 3 button mouse or trackball support.
* works with enhanced keyboards.
VIRUAMOS is a memory resident program using a little over 1K
of memory that is loaded after the mouse driver. With VIRUAMOS you
get a "virtual Reality" appearance to you mouse while not effecting
the mouses preformance in the least. Viruamos works with most mouse
drivers and is loaded after the mouse drivers.
mouse movement - sends arrow (cursor) key presses
left button - sends ?? (enter) key
right button - sends Esc (escape) key
middle button - sends Del key (if 3 button mouse )
left + right buttons at the same time
- sends F1 key (F10 key if /t command line
switch is used when installing VIRUAMOS )
User's Reference Guide

Introduction
-----------------------------------------------------------------
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
IBM PC or compatible, DOS 2.0 or higher,
Mouse - Microsoft(tm) or Mouse Systems(tm) compatible driver
software for your mouse or trackball.
QUICK-START AND USAGE
The driver for your mouse or trackball must be loaded before
you can load VIRUAMOS. VIRUAMOS will let you know if a mouse
driver is not installed with a 'Mouse driver not loaded'
message. If you know that your mouse driver is loaded, to give
it a quick try, from the prompt run VIRUAMOS. Then run a text
editor or word processor program that does not normally work
with a mouse. You will find that the mouse can be used to move a
cursor or highlight bar that is normally moved with the cursor
keys. The left button is the same as pressing the enter key and
can be used to make selections or enter a return. The right
button is the same as pressing escape. This works well with
editors like VDE and QEDIT(tm) that do not provided mouse
support internally. Note: pressing the right mouse button (Esc
key) activates the menu system in QEDIT(tm). If you have a three
button mouse the middle button is the same as pressing the Del
key. Pressing left + right mouse buttons at the same time is the
same as pressing the F1 key. The F1 key is the help key in many
programs. Optionally if you load VIRUAMOS with the command
'VIRUAMOS /t' the F10 key is sent by pressing the left + right
buttons. This is for the integrated editor in the Borland Turbo
languages which use the F10 key to activate the menu system.
VIRUAMOS function is always restored automatically when
returning to the command line prompt incase a program has
disabled VIRUAMOS by using its own mouse functions. VIRUAMOS
function is also restored by pressing both shift () keys at the
same time. This is provided for menu programs and other programs
that allow you to shell out to run another program. When you
return to the original program, if VIRUAMOS is disabled, press
both shift keys.
Note: Load (run) VIRUAMOS from a batch file (autoexec.bat when
you boot) or from the command line only. DO NOT load VIRUAMOS
from a program that allows you to run other programs (shell to
DOS or shells to a command line).
INSTALLATION AND SET UP
Copy the file VIRUAMOS.COM to your hard drive or boot disk.
The following is an example of how to install VIRUAMOS and
the mouse driver supplied with your mouse or trackball. The name
of the driver depends on the maker. So <drivername> means to use
the name of the driver supplied with your mouse. An editor is
used to enter the lines of text in the config.sys and
autoexec.bat files. Also read the instructions that came with
your mouse on how to load your mouse driver software.
If your mouse driver is a device driver (mouse.sys or
something similar with a .sys ) it needs to be loaded from the
config.sys file. Then included "VIRUAMOS" on a line some where
near the beginning of the autoexec.bat file. If you have copied
the driver and VIRUAMOS to a directory other than the root then
you would need to include a path.
Example line in config.sys:
device=c:\dos\<drivername>.sys
And the example line in autoexec.bat:
c:\util\VIRUAMOS
If your mouse driver is named mouse.com, msmouse.com or
something similar, <drivername> is entered on a line in your
autoexec.bat file. Enter VIRUAMOS on the next line. VIRUAMOS
will not load unless a mouse driver is loaded first. If you have
copied the driver and VIRUAMOS to a directory other than the
root then you would need to include a path.
Example lines in autoexec.bat:
c:\dos\<drivername>
c:\util\VIRUAMOS
To use a mouse to cursor key speed other than the default,
include a horizontal and vertical speed value between 1-99 on the
command line that loads VIRUAMOS.
The format is - VIRUAMOS <horizontal value> <vertical value>
Examples - VIRUAMOS 4 6
VIRUAMOS /t 4 6
VIRUAMOS should be compatible with other TSR (terminate and
stay resident) programs. You will find that VIRUAMOS works with
other TSRs. It can be used with programs like CED or STACK to
recall, edit and run previously entered command lines. I have
tested it with the program CTRLALT and the mouse can be use
instead of the cursor keys inside CTRLALT. If you are have
problems using VIRUAMOS with other TSR programs, try changing
the order in which VIRUAMOS and the other TSR programs are
loaded (try loading VIRUAMOS first).
