is definitely the best drawing program for the Atari 8-bit line!

According to the ad for Zobian Controls' The Rat mouse controller, there was a version of AtariArtist that supported their mouse controller.

The Altirra emulator supports tablet input for this title, though you have to add it manually: 1. Input > Input Mappings... 2. Click Add... call it "Mouse -> Atari Tablet" or similar 3. Click Edit... 4. Add Controller... , choose Tablet (Atari touch tablet), OK 5. Axis 1 -> Edit... , Source : Mouse Pos X (pad) 6. Axis 2 -> Edit... , Source : Mouse Pos Y (pad) 7. You can map Left/Right/Up/Down to the arrow or WASD keys on your keyboard or leave them blank 8. The Stylus button was a button on the pen. It draws when the stylus is DOWN, and toggles the tool screen when stylus is UP. I mapped the buttons on the pen & tablet as follows: Stylus button -> Mouse LMB Left tablet button -> Mouse X1B Right tablet button -> Mouse X2B Raise stylus -> Mouse RMB

As kid we played "Guess the drawing" with this, where one was drawing something while the others had to guess what was being drawn as quick as possible. The Touch Table made quickly drawing easy. Great fun.
