In slimski login, if for some reason mistyping the username and hitting enter, there seems to be no way to get back to the username field -there’s no mouse pointer neither-; you’ll have to deal with a forceful login failure before trying again…
Am I missing something and this can be fixed?Thanks again.

b/c the antiX default configuration does not specify “mouse_enabled true”
(FWIW, I applaud the decision to suppress display of the mouse cursor on the login screen)/usr/share/slimski/doc/slimski_OPTIONS_LIST.txt

Yes, take care when typing username + password.
