Mouse clicks link to alt-func?
There is one thing that I miss that Windows had. The ability to use my 4th and 5th mouse buttons to more forward and backward in firefox, explorer, etc. I wanna know is there anyway to link those buttons to alt-< and alt->.

Well, the first step would be to add a few lines to your xorg.conf, mouse section:
Option "Buttons" "7" Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" to specify the amunt of buttons and make the scrollwheel work, but I guess you allready have these if your scrollwheel works.. Oh yeah, dont be fooled by the big numbers.. The buttons are in this order: 1. left mouse button 2. middle mouse button 3. right mouse button 4. thumb button 1 5. thumb button 2 6. scrollwheel up/down (dun remember which order) 7. scrollwheel up/down (dun remember which order) Im not absolutely sure on the order (see xmodmap note later on) So, once you have all your buttons ready for use, now we can use some program to bind them. Now, you might have the buttons in the wrong order, heres a short script I fix my ordering with upon X startup: Code:
#!/bin/bash Hope this babble helps.. (; |
Thanks for the head start!
