Sorry about the last article. I am new to this business. My problem with Mouse-X is that it does not recognize Button2 (both buttons) and Button3 (right button) events. It only recognizes Button1 (left button). That means I can not paste, get the twm menus (I get only one), and operate software that requires Buttons 2 $ 3. However, my friend's account on the same machine works just fine. So, I copied all his startup files (.twmrc, .Xdefaults, even .login, .cshrc, EVERYTHING) and it still has the same behaviour. Any ideas? Thanks. -- - Wassim M. Jabi - - Doctoral Program in Architecture - - University of Michigan - - 2000 Bonisteel Boulevard - - Ann Arbor, MI 48109-2069 - - wjabi@caen.engin.umich.edu -

It is wasy to forget that mouse-X runs "on top" of NextStep, and not "instead" of it. Thus special defaults may carry over when you start up X. You do not have "menu button enabled" set in your Preferences for NextStep. If you set it, then everything will be ok. - db
