- Hi, everyone. I need some help in how to use the microsoft mouse with X.
- It has 2 buttons only, as opposed to 3 buttons in many other mouse. It looks
- like only the left button works(I use all default setting), and that leave me
- only one button to use. As a result, I can not cut and paste text from one
- window to another window because there is no middle button on the mouse.
-
- Is there a combination of mouse clicking or keystrokes that can achieve the
- effect of the middle button on a regular 3 button mouse? Should I redefine
- the functionalities of the buttons in system.twmrc? If yes, how should I do
- it? Thanks in advance.
