AppleWorks 3 with Timeout UltraMacros installed also uses the mouse for
navigation.

Moving the mouse up, down, left, or right selects various menus and
options when presented with some.

While editing text, it moves the cursor. Holding down the button
scrolls up or down, depending on the last direction the mouse was
moving. It selects cells in the spreadsheet.

I would assume AW 4 and AW5 work the same way.

Correct.  Versions 4 and 5 just "built in" Timeout.

I should have mentioned this, since the version of Appleworks that I
use is 3 + Timeout Ultramacros.  ;-)

A couple programs that might be of interest are ProTerm (comm program
and much more) and Apple II Desktop, which is a simplified Mac-like
GUI.


ProSel 8 isn't a GUI, but it does support mouse navigation of its
program selector screen.

I should also have mentioned Appleworks 4 and 5, which can use a
mouse for navigation.
