Use mouseemu. I have configured it to generate the right things:
- - Left_Ctrl+click => right click
- - Left_Shift+click => middle click
If you have to modifier+click, you can use Fn+modifier+click which will
act as right_modifier+click which is different from Left_modifier.
Or you could map the combinations on Right_modifier+click if you want.
Here is my mouseemu configuration file:
- ------8<-----------
$ cat /etc/default/mouseemu
# Defaults for mouseemu initscript (/etc/init.d/mouseemu)
# These are the default values on PowerPC. On all other architectures
# middle and right click are disabled by default.
# Key codes can be found in include/linux/input.h in the kernel headers
# or by using `showkey` in a console.
#MID_CLICK="-middle 0 68" # F10 with no modifier
#MID_CLICK="-middle 0 0" # no middle click emulation
MID_CLICK="-middle 42 272" # left shift + click
#MID_CLICK="-middle 125 272" # Left Apple Key (LEFTMETA) + click
#RIGHT_CLICK="-right 0 87" # F11 with no modifier
RIGHT_CLICK="-right 29 272" # Left Ctrl + click
#SCROLL="-scroll 56" # Alt key
SCROLL="-scroll 0" # no scroll
TYPING_BLOCK="-typing-block 500" # block mouse for 500ms after a keypress
- ------8<-----------
