  works great, here's another question:

  does anybody know if it's possible to set up the side button (or any
button for that matter) to act as double click? I can remap buttons any
way I like (there are six buttons (including wheel) so each of them can
be arbitrary 'logical' button 1 through 6) but how do I remap button to
some other action? is it possible?

  TIA
