Using the Three-Button Mouse
The mouse is a hand-operated locating device. A three-button mouse is available for
use with the system unit.
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.
When you move the mouse around on a flat surface, as shown in this illustration, the
cursor moves on the display screen; the movement changes the position of the
cursor.
