I have an issue with the way that tsclient (terminal service client) maps mouse buttons.

I'm left handed, and I have my mouse set up left-handed at work. My machine at work is XP-pro.

At home, my desktop is also set up with the mouse buttons configured left-handed. I log in via tsclient, and all is well with the world: left handed mouse local (linux box at home) maps to left handed mouse-remote, and my mouse buttons don't get mixed up.

However, for some reason, I mouse right handed on my laptop. I don't know why, but it's uncomfortable to mouse with my left hand... no big deal, until I log on to my work machine via tsclient, and the mouse buttons are backwards.

Is there some way to specify (preferably on a tsclient-profile basis) that you want the mouse buttons reversed? I've looked through all of the menus that I can think of, and I don't see any option... the .rdp file under ~/.tsclient seems to be a text file, and doesn't say anything about mouse button mapping, but it seems like such an obvious thing to be able to do.

Let me make it clear: I don't want to have to re-map mouse buttons on local or remote machines (although, if I could specify mappings in a shell script which launched tsclient, and the mappings stayed local to the shell script and its children, I could live with that).

Tried this with xmodmap, unfortunately that modifies things on a screen by screen basis, so it's essentially global within a given X session.
