Nice! I would like to someday finish writing an OS for my IRC bot that is still running.

Maybe the most useless comment but: that non-linear mouse movement (aka acceleration) is the very first thing I turn off when I boot up a new OS. It literally hurts my hand somehow. For example linearmouse is free for Mac. For Windows you can just turn off acceleration. For Linux its easy, obviously.

Using mouse acceleration stops you from learning to map a distance traveled by the mouse to a distance on the screen. I do think its more efficient in the long run without it. Something I learned to do from gamers, and something I think all gamers still do for a good reason.

I don’t change any mouse settings, so I’m not sure what the default is, but I can still accurately click parts of my screen that are covered.

I think you’d get a feel for it either way. Like how the throttle pedal in your car (probably) doesn’t map to a speed.

My main gripe with nonlinear mouse movenement is that it breaks learned behaviour if you do it faster. This is why most gamers use raw linear mouse data.
