No prior art?

Microsoft has just been awarded another stupid patent:

Microsoft has successfully patented using short, long or double clicks to launch different applications on "limited resource computing devices"
How long did it take you to think of a code that used short, long or multiple iterations of some symbol or activity to represent something or initiate an action?

All I can say is -... ..- .-.. .-.. ... .... .. - (go here to translate).
