If you hold down the right shift key while pressing the right
button, it interpretes that as a middle button press.  I'm not
completely certain, but I seem to remember it has to be the
right shift key and not the left.  The one machine where I
use that is a laptop and I've gotten into the habit of holding
the shift key with my pinky and hitting the right button below
the touchpad with my thumb.  Still not as nice as a real
middle button, but it serves in a pinch.

 If I'am able to reproduce a major issue should I report to the list? Or to 
 you? Or is there currently no maintenance of plan9 troff?

The best thing to do is submit a patch. Troff is maintained with the rest of 
the system. For more info on submitting a patch, see:

If I choose 9front machine as for network file/auth/cpu server (cwfs),
and try to boot Richard's 9pi terminal (fossil) but root from the server, 
can I do it?
