- Or even better use the CheckMouse utility found in Aminet:util/boot. My startup
- looks pretty much like this:
-
- Failat 40
- CheckMouse ; LMB=5, RMB=10, MMB=20
- Set Buttons $RC
- Failat 10
-
- If $Buttons EQ 0
- Execute S:Startup-Sequence.WB
- Skip End
- EndIf
-
- If $Button EQ 5
- Execute S:Games-Startup
- Skip End
- Endif
-
-
- Lab End
