I'd certainly be curious to hear what you find! I'm also curious as to why
Homeword would object to a game controller in the first place. It's a word
processor. I realize there might be shift key mod support, or mouse support,
or something, but, still, prohibition of use if there's a joystick attached?
I might take a look at the code later and see if I can at least figure out
precisely what it's checking to trigger that message...
