[Mac-emacs-users] Newbie question - mouse emulation

[Luigi B. <bal...@ma...>]

Hi all,
	I looked around the docs, but I couldn't even find a reference.
How does one emulate the middle and right mouse buttons?

Thanks in advance,
			Luigi

Hi Luigi,

Unfortunately there isn't a way to do that at present.  Emacs does
allow you to remap keys to invoke these functions you'd normally call
with middle and right mouse button clicks.  Please look at the
documentation for the function global-set-key and the section `Key
Bindings' in the online manual.  Notice that the shift-, control-, and
meta-modifiers do not work currently with mouse clicks, so S-mouse-1,
e.g., will not be detected.  I'll fix this in a future version.

Andrew.
