Thanks, Joe! The idea for MouseTool came to me when I was thinking about head-tracking systems that allow you to move a cursor using your head orientation, and then send clicks when you pause. As far as I know, I was the first person to use this technique with an ordinary mouse, but it is possible that I am wrong about that. There are now other programs available for Windows and Macs that do this; I know that some were developed after MouseTool, but it is likely others came before. Other ideas in MouseTool for Windows that I hope to port to KDE were either suggested by MouseTool users or came out of email discussions with users.
