  • Command to unfreeze a mouse pointer

    From Dave@dave@triffid.co.uk to comp.sys.acorn.misc on Fri Aug 9 11:28:46 2024
    From Newsgroup: comp.sys.acorn.misc

    StrongArm RISC PC running RISC OS 6.20 (FWIW. 29 years old).

    Today the mouse pointer stuck, became frozen.

    Other things including the Command line were okay.

    Is there a CLI command (Or something) that will reinitialise the
    mouse/pointer?

    Thanks

    I guess CLI and 'RMReinit Mouse' would do it.

    I must try that if it freezes again.
