This is what I use in my blackbox menu: [submenu] (Volume Settings) [exec] (Very Loud) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=248.248} [exec] (Loud) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=160,160} [exec] (Normal) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=120,120} [exec] (Quiet) {mixerctl -w outputs.master=72,72} [end] [submenu] (Mouse Settings) [exec] (Very Fast) {xset m 7 10} [exec] (Normal \(Fast\)) {xset m 3 10} [exec] (System Default) {xset m default} [exec] (Glacial) {xset m 0 10} [end] I do not need to see what the current settings are. I do not need to waste display space to know what the current settings are. Note that mixerctl comes with NetBSD. I am assuming that a similar command-line mixer interface is available for other operating systems. Jeremy C. Reed .......................................................
