Running Windows I used the middle button to minimize windows. It was a really fast navigating. I never managed to reconfigure the middle button under linux. It will always past text.You can give it an additional function but whos interested in minimizing + paste?? But I can configure the thumb button. My mouse only have one but you can configure all buttons. > Just how flexible is this thing? I would like to make the right side > button do a menu perhaps a graphical script I write myself and call. As far as I found out: It is not totaly flexible. There is a key mouse in X windows. It simulates this. So you can do everthing the mouse keys can do. In other words imwheel just sends keys.
