Right mouse button is CMND , middle mouse button is CTRL.
Would be nice to get some feedback.

  Hmm how are you going to get double clicks with this ? 
Also keep in mind that many window managers/programs use
ctrl|meta|alt-mousebutton.

I still feel that at least for X it should (and can) be 
handled from inside X and not from the kernel. We still
need something for the console though.
It work also on the console. I guess there is no easy way for
ALT+double_click.

Or do you miss something? It is for the copy&paste function, I will
check what I can do to solve the problem with Xterm. You can not change
the size of the font.
If someone really need a application that depends on "complex mouse
clicks" ;-) then go and by a more button mouse.
  I mean that you can map keyboard keys to mouse clicks under X *without* any
kernel changes. Take a look at http://people.a2000.nl/omoerbe/ for a better
description.  
BTW, where can I get a more button ADB mouse?
  Can't help there, at least in Greece its much easier (and cheaper) to find/buy
a usb pci card :(.
