;;
;; DESCRIPTION:  
;;
;;   This module is meant to be used with a chord keyboard in one hand for
;;   typing and a mouse in the other.  It requires that Hyperbole be loaded
;;   in order to work.  Hyperbole defines two Smart Keys, the Action Key and
;;   the Assist Key, on the middle and right buttons by default.
;;
;;   If the Action Key is held down while alpha characters are typed,
;;   they are translated into Control keys instead.  The Assist
;;   Key translates them into Meta keys.  When both Smart Keys
;;   are depressed, Control-Meta keys are produced.  The commands bound
;;   to the characters produced are then run.
;;
;;   So the Smart Keys modify the keys typed, e.g. Action Key + {a}
;;   runs the function for {C-a}.
;;
;;   If no keys are typed while the Smart Keys are down, they operate as
;;   normally under Hyperbole.
;;
;;   TO INVOKE:
;;
;;       (hmouse-mod-set-global-map)
;;
;; DESCRIP-END.
