It's in the contrib directory on > expo.lcs.mit.edu. A non-widget-based program with much more elaborate functionality is on the anonymous ftp area of 132.206.1.1 (X/cdplayer.shar). Of course, the same caveats about Suns apply: you need a recent version of the OS (known to build on SPARCs running 4.1). Documentation is basically nonexistent, but there isn't much to document except command-line options, which are all collected together in one routine in the source. der Mouse old: mcgill-vision!mouse new: mouse@larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu
