MouseWrangler




MouseWrangler is a freeware utility for performing mouse gestures. MouseWrangler monitors the mouse while Right-Click is held and keeps track of the movements made. When a set of movements is made, called a "gesture", an action is performed.

MouseWrangler can simulate keystrokes, or run programs and files to automate common Windows tasks (like closing programs, minimizing programs, saving files, and so on). For more complex actions, MouseWrangler can also be used to trigger external macro programs.

- Optionally detects diagonal movements
- Single and multiple keystroke emulation
- Program and file exectuion
- Optional Suggestion popup, Help popup, Scratchpad, and Auto-correction
- Highly configurable


Requirements

- A Windows operating system
- No installation required, but an optional setup program is included
- Source code is included but not required
