DFP - #102 Wraparound
It’s Tuesday and we have another super handy mac application kindly supplied by listener Alex Anderson.
‘Wraparound is an application primarily intended for users with large and/or multiple screens, which allows the mouse cursor to “wrap” around the screens. Rather than spending time and energy moving the cursor across the screen, from one side to the other, simply drag it off one edge and it immediately appears on the other side.’
