Mouse keys is a feature of some operating systems used to improve accessibility to disabled users. Instead of using a mouse, keystrokes on a standard keyboard will control the cursor. Often, the numeric keypad is used for this purpose.

It is also sometimes used when the mouse fails, or as a way to cheat in certain games where the speed of repetitive clicking is the primary gauge of success.
