Hi Peter, Thanks for getting back.
I have had a look into the implementation of 3rd button emulation this morning. If this feature were to be extended to touch points would you recommend altering xf86-input-evdev to not filter out touch events or should this option be lower down the stack? It seems xorg is responsible for emulating a pointer based on touches so should it be responsible for emulating clicks (buttons 1, 2 or 3)?
