Thanks for asking, yeah I played around with it allright, and I got it
to go faster, but the sensitivity is such that the weight of my finger
clobbers the damn thing. I haven't had a chance yet to implement the

Maybe Scot or someone else can tell me the filename I am looking for ?
Or is this just a command line parameter to enter?
