Tools keyboard, definitely

You can work without a mouse, but can you do work without a keyboard?

The mouse slows down the actual work as one must take the hands away from the keyboard to do the mouse action. And that typically means grabbing the mouse, making circular motions so you can find the pointer on the computer screen, and then using the mouse to scroll down the page and click the [Submit Reply] button.

NAME
glutMouseFunc - sets the mouse callback for the current window. SYNTAX
#include <GLUT/glut.h> void glutMouseFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state, int x, int y)); ARGUMENTS
func The new mouse callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutMouseFunc sets the mouse callback for the current window. When a user presses and releases mouse buttons in the window, each press and each release generates a mouse callback. The button parameter is one of GLUT_LEFT_BUTTON, GLUT_MIDDLE_BUTTON, or GLUT_RIGHT_BUTTON. For systems with only two mouse buttons, it may not be possible to generate GLUT_MIDDLE_BUTTON callback. For systems with a single mouse but- ton, it may be possible to generate only a GLUT_LEFT_BUTTON callback. The state parameter is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was due to a release or press respectively. The x and y callback parameters indicate the window relative coordinates when the mouse button state changed. If a GLUT_DOWN callback for a specific button is triggered, the program can assume a GLUT_UP callback for the same button will be generated (assuming the window still has a mouse callback registered) when the mouse button is released even if the mouse has moved outside the window. If a menu is attached to a button for a window, mouse callbacks will not be generated for that button. During a mouse callback, glutGetModifiers may be called to determine the state of modifier keys when the mouse event generating the call- back occurred. Passing NULL to glutMouseFunc disables the generation of mouse callbacks. SEE ALSO
