Mr Rainer Keller asked me: "If I use the same mouse and the same
image file on a PC and on a Mac then the middle and the right mouse
button are swapped. So if I am using the same image at work ... and
at home ... I always have to go to preferences and change the "toggle
mouse button" preference even if I am using the same mouse on both
machines"
Fine, ask teenager for his scroll mouse, mutter about how I've
ignored this issue. A bit of coding...
3.8.12beta6U about to ship, people who are really desperate can email
me (not the list) for a copy to test with before I distribute widely.
info.plist entries
<key>SqueakUse2ButtonOrWindowsScrollMouse</key>
<false/>
<key>SqueakUse3ButtonColoredMouse</key>
<false/>
SqueakUse2ButtonOrWindowsScrollMouse - Set to true if you have one
of funky 3 button windows mice with two buttons and clickable scroll
wheel nub.
SqueakUse3ButtonColoredMouse - Set to true if you have a traditional
3 button colored smalltalk mouse, or white hair in your beard.
if both settings are false then you'll get I hope same behaviour as
historical mac VM using the one button mouse/trackpad or any flavor
of multi-button mouse.
