I have pieced together some really good information on how to move the cursor from the keyboard in pdaXrom, the only thing I think is missing from this perfect X11 pda, from a couple really good posts:

https://www.oesf.org/forums/inde...59&hl=xkeymouse (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=3259&hl=xkeymouse)
But I am still lacking the abiltity to do anything but left click. Several posts mention using these lines in their /etc/xkmc:
keycode=42, none, Exec, xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3", NoFork, NoAutoRepeat
keycode=47, none, Exec, xmodmap -e "pointer = 2 1 3", NoFork, NoAutoRepeat
Which I have not gotten to work. The only thing that does work is:
keycode=42, AnyModifier, Button, 1, None, NoAutoRepeat
which gives me the left click only and no drag. Sadly, there is no documentation to go with xkeymouse. I would very much like to highlight/copy into buffer and paste using the middle mouse button as well as all the other time saving things that having a mouse allows (and never again use the stylus!!) but would settle for at least being able to have more mouse functionality than a Mac with a single button. (no offence to Mac users. Steve Jobs, on the other hand.....)
A second note, moving the cursor using xkeymouse drives aterm nuts and the load through the roof. It has no effect on xterm. Hm?
Thoughts?

xmodmap -e "pointer = 2 1 3"
This line change the default button, eg above rigth click is the default,
but it doesn't actually send a click.
maybe :
keycode=47, AnyModifier, Button, 3, None, NoAutoRepeat
would do the trick?
