Hi all,


neither sure whether this a regression, nor whether you would consider it a bug at all. However ...


My VM is 201912311458 (Win64), which should be the current 5.3 RC if I am informed correctly?

When I run Squeak.exe with a fresh #19329 image, everything works fine.

However, when I use SqueakConsole.exe instead with the same image file, blue and yellow buttons are reversed. That is, as I am on Windows:
Squeak.exe: middleMouse -> blue; rightMouse -> yellow (expected)
SqueakConsole.exe: middleMouse -> yellow; rightMouse -> blue (not expected)

I suppose this behavior is set via the Squeak.ini file (3ButtonMouse), which is not used by SqueakConsole.exe. But why is this the case?
However, to me, this feels inconsistent and thus inconvenient. I would like to work with both executables interchangeably depending on whether I am working in a console or win32 context.

Best,
Christoph
