On a side note, I got plan 9 installed on a VBox VM - had to= install an older version of VBox and use IDE controller for the virtual di= sk.

first a bit of terminology. =A0the mouse buttons in plan 9 are
B1, B2, B3 from left to right. =A0the right most button is always
B3 even if there is no middle button.

hold b3 down in the grey background and a menu will appear.
release with "new" highlighted. =A0goto one the top left corner,<= br> press and hold b3 and sweep to bottom right corner, then release b3.
