Abstract

See full text

The present invention involves a computer based method and system employing an index finger controlled pointing device for manipulation and control of the keyboard. The user employ their index fingers as the pointing device from the home row typing position. All pointing device operations and thumb button operations can proceed without moving either hand from the home row key position. This represents a significant improvement over the current state of the art by keeping the user's hands and fingers in place over the home row of keys on the keyboard. This improved approach is the basis of a major embodiment of this invention.
