How-To Instructions for an Quick & Easy Trackball Interface Availiable

I've just finished my trackball to mouse interface tutorial.
It's a down & dirty, researched & tested, 2-page how-to on hacking a mouse to an arcade trackball without having to modify the trackball or take power or ground from your machine's power supply. The mouse hack does it all.
The document has been converted to an Adobe file for distribution.
Here's the link to Adobe's website:
https://createpdf.adobe.com/cgi-pickup.pl/Mouse%20to%20Trackball%20Instructions.pdf?BP=IE&LOC=en_US&CUS=e2dc16ea454785e06bc37fc8dc962de8&CDS=3F5273E0-18E8-208DBC
Note: copy the whole URL & paste it into your address bar or you will be asked for a password.
It won't be there for long so grab it quick if you want it.
Hopefully Saint will scoop it up & ad it to the downloads/examples page since I have no functioning website.
Enjoy!
