AutoHotkey used to improve mouse usage for Parkinson's disease
sufferer.
I suffer Parkinson's and find that when the symptoms of shaking
are bad I tend to click the mouse buttons when not wanted.
AutoHotkey is a free program that can alter keys among a million other
things. This simple text when added to the running AutoHotkey script
deactivates the left and right mouse buttons and substitutes the F1 and
F2 keys.
It is toggled on and off with the ScrLk key.
I found it very useful.
Please contact Peter@poppasplace.au with any feedback.

I have a Lenovo laptop and find the track point allows me to
locate the
cursor then click a left or right button and the effect of shaking is
reduced..
Lenovo Track point is an iconic, pressure-sensitive red pointing stick
located between the G, H, and B keys on ThinkPad keyboards,
acting as an ergonomic alternative to a mouse. It allows navigation
without removing hands from the keyboard, utilizing dedicated buttons
for clicking and scrolling.(Google AI).
