You didn't seem to read what I wrote or follow the link that I provided.

I pointed you at the answer to your question from when you asked it the
first time.  You ARE spamming the list when you ask exactly the same
question twice in the span of a couple of days and there is no reason to
do that since you can find the answer to your question in the archives
regardless of any difficulties you had subscribing.

I like your scrollbar.translations!  Works better than interchanging the 
functions of buttone #2 and #3.


Thanks.

With xterm, the middle mouse button is essentailly a soft-scroll in 
that the scroll bars moves with the mouse pointer.  I would like to 
make it mouse button 3 instead but only in xterm.  How can I do that 
in the ..Xdefaults file.


There is a related example in the manpage (for xterm), e.g.,

http://invisible-island.net/xterm/manpage/xterm.html

Some people prefer using the left pointer button for dragging the 
scrollbar thumb. That can be setup by altering the translations 
resource, e.g.,

*VT100.scrollbar.translations:#override \n\
 :StartScroll(Forward) \n\
 :StartScroll(Continuous) MoveThumb() NotifyThumb() \n\
 :StartScroll(Backward) \n\
 :MoveThumb() NotifyThumb() \n\
 :  NotifyScroll(Proportional) EndScroll()

I'm not SPAMing.  I was having problems in getting on this mailing list 
thus the duplicates (I wan't seeing them).


I know there are a number of Internet resources for X man page.  I'm 
looking for *real* man pages for X that I can install in one of my "man" 
directories on my system.   HTML files do not work well!   On the 
internet, you will find several variations from a standard.  From a 
person learning X, you don't want to know about those variations in the 
beginning.  An experience person can easily weed out what does not 
work.  Man pages provide more helpful information than "-help" or "--help".


It's been 10 years since I've used X.  I've really lost a lot so I'm a 
beginner again.


Not only is the "X" man page missing, the "xmodmap", "XWin", and "xinit" 
man pages are missing too.

There is no reason to spam the list with duplicate queries.

Use the mailing list archives where you'll find something like this:
