- Added support for a new MouseMan model (4 buttons, no wheel).
Based on the report from Dave Bodenstab. - Turn off PnP COM device enumeration procedure if the user explicitly specifies a protocol type with the "-t" option. - Accept "-t auto". Now the user may entirely omit the "-t" option in the command line, or specify "-t auto" in order to make moused detect an appropriate protocol type automatically. In the previous version, moused did so only if the "-t" option is absent in the command line. ("-t auto" won't disable PnP COM device enumeration.) - Updated the man page.
