Why did you make this?

The short answer is there are no Python libraries for simulating the mouse cursor behavior of a trackball mouse.

The long answer is I have wrist injuries which require I immobilize my wrists when working. This means I am restricted to ergo keyboards and thumb trackball mice. The keyboard is great; however the trackball mice stinks. I'm absolutely tired of the inconsistency in movement and constant cleaning.

Wouldn't it be nice if I could just purchase a thumb trackpad mouse which acts like a thumb trackball mouse? Well, they don't exist so I'll have to make one myself. To complete this task I've chosen to go the CircuitPython route. Thus, here we are creating a library to handle the pointer motion simulation
