OSNews, Generic OSes It's time for another "OSNews asks" item. This time, I want to focus on something that I've been wanting to talk about with you all before, but never found the time for. The question is simple: which feature(s) from other operating systems would you like to see in your own main operating system?

On my amiga, some .. omfg .. 20years ago, I could hold down, I think left-amiga and then press the arrow keys to move the mouse pointer. It accellerated exponantially in speed when held down, for better or worse, and then I think i pressed for example left-amiga + left-alt for left mouse click.

For the few cases where I had no mouse available, I really missed this feature on non-Amiga platforms.
