Abstract
This paper proposes a standard man-machine dialog environment as realized by a mouse with built-in universal commands, and describes a manufactured prototype mouse. This mouse with five keys is designed to exploit the agility of the human hand to the utmost. In order to use this mouse for daily control in interactive systems, we introduce the concept of universal commands that facilitate visualization of the system state for data and commands, as well as the dialog history leading to the present state. We describe a recommended assignment of universal commands to the five mouse-keys. Finally, the hardware configuration of a prototype mouse is described in detail.
