Yeah, it sounds like a fun problem to me too. I was thinking that the coolest thing would be to have a gnome capplet type of configurator, that would let you select from multiple mathematical functions, and then SEE a graph of what each one does. Then it would let you edit that graph by setting vertices (sort of a like the volume envelope editors in sound programs), and maybe specify linear interpolation vs. cubit spline, etc... or allow you to enter an expression in scheme or python code that would compute the acceleration amount. That would be cool, at least, but I doubt I'd ever get around to coding that UI :). _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
