How to map middle-click on mouse to left-click.

sdfi · 08-26-2012, 01:08 PM

The left click on my mouse has broken, so i would like to use the middle click button in it's place. I can do this on windows with autohotkey, but how can i do it on linux?

(and yes, i have a new mouse on the way.. but it's not here yet)

Code:

xinput set-button-map ...

should give you what you need.

Code:

man xinput

for more. (I think it's installed by default on most systems but if not should be in your repositories.)
