The TrackPoint is a unique device for moving the pointer on the screen. Using the

To move the pointer, use the TrackPoint pointing stick at the center of the keyboard.
Press gently with your left or right index finger in the direction you want to move
the pointer. To select and drag an object, press and hold one of the buttons with
either thumb, as required by your software.
Click means to press the left button once. Double-click means to press the left
button twice within 1 second.
