Re: [Gimp-user] Two Suggestions I want Implemented in Future Release

[Nate Owens <nateowens44 gmail com>]

I'd suggest getting an inexpensive Wacom pen tablet. Changing mouse
configurations would be contrary to most users who would be using
traditional mouse. The Wacom comes with a mouse usable on the tablet. I'm
using one now, and the pen is next to it in the event I need it for
drawing. I use both interchangeably and constantly.
