Good, glad you're happy!
Downside: once you enable mousekeys via the Pointer_EnableKeys mapping
("Home" in the example) it seems to time out after a couple of minutes
and you have to hit the enable key again.
The only way around this I have found is to pass "+accessx 0" to the
server: e.g.:
startx -- :0.0 +accessx 0 ...
(timeout of 0 secs means never timeout) I don't know of a config file
that sets the +accessx 0 (besides hacking the startx script). I have
trained my family to start their X sessions from the cmd line using
wrapper script I wrote that sets all of these good things.
BTW, mousekeys is from the handicapped/accessibility part of X11. Good
stuff in there. Not well documented, you have to look around in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/compat and search usenet, etc. I'm guessing
one could figure out how to map Button_2 -> DblClick_1 but I don't have
the time to play with it.
