Hi everyone,

I have been chatting with mpmc over on #phillw and he has some
Accessibility concerns.

I did not really know what Accessibility would require, so I have been
working on providing things that are useful.

Here are the new things...

1. torios-accessibility

This little script requires xkbset and will enable/disable sticky keys

I have already added this into the torios package, along with some menu
items for it.

2. find-cursor

this is a tiny C program written by someone else :D

It is super simple and works directly on X11 to draw circles on the
screen to help locate the cursor.

I am currently working on building/packaging this to include in the
default ToriOS builds.

When they upload you can:

sudo apt install find-cursor

To test run

find-cursor

OR

find-cursor -c *COLORNAME*

COLORNAME is any normal X11 color name

I have code for it in the newest default jwmrc files

F2,F3,F5 all will call this program (with black, white,red circles) to
find the mouse

here is the github animated GIF
