I don't mean "add it to your startup scripts", I mean, isn't there some kind of bluetooth HID configuration tool? Futhermore, I want it to detect when that mouse is near and automatically connect to it. If that mouse is not nearby, obviously it should do nothing. Also, I want it to ignore all bluetooth devices except for that mouse. Any ideas? Thanks.
