ABSTRACT:
A method, program and system for enabling alternate input commands by means of a stylus associated with a personal digital assistant (PDA) are provided. The method comprises applying pressure to a pressure sensor on the stylus, which invokes an application on the PDA that interprets stylus input as equivalent to a right mouse click on a computer. In response to the stylus being touched to an object displayed by the PDA, the application opens a menu associated with that object, wherein the menu allows a user to initiate specified object functions and to change specified properties of the object. Invoking the application on the PDA is accomplished via a Bluetooth™ signal between the stylus and PDA.
