Where can I find out about system access in microwindows?  In particular,
is there a software switch for flipping between portrait and landscape?
Does microwindows have access to button events other than those from the
mouse?  Has anyone written a "finger" driver for the Vadem Clio (or any
ohter device) which does gesture recognition for touch sensitive screens
that would be easy to adapt?  Can I write a whole paragraph of questions?

Cheers,
josh

Currently, it's a compile time option in the config file.

If the OS delivers "buttons" as kbd values, the tty kbd driver will
pick them up.  This is very OS specific.  It easy to add a modified
kbd or mouse/touch panel driver that would deliver them to Microwindows.
