Until some function is applied to the thumb button (unlikely, except on private modifications - 3 button mice are a decent standard to adhere to, and *no one* wants standard "features" only accessible to owners of special hardware), why not assign the "middle button" function to the thumb button? Or maybe even let the thumb-button be the "left" button, an= d have the left become the "middle" ? The scroll-wheel is convenient (under windoze) for *small* scrollings. On sources, iirc, there is a patch to rio to let scroll-wheeling emulate up-arrow and down-arrow - I couldn't get it to work with my USB mouse, though. Is there a wheel patch for usbmouse? --Joel
