Laukev7:
Is there any way to use a mouse button as a binding? I'm trying to add the ctrl-click feature for Linux PPC (since it's a single mouse button), but I haven't found anythign yet.

GenuineAdvantage:
Not bad thanks. It's better than nothing. I just set it to ShowDesktop. The bad thing is it doesn't work with just a single key, does it? It has to be Alt+ letter? The windows key is the Multi_key, and that doesn't work either way. Works in XFCE though, so could I make it work by itself in this config?

edit: the Win key is supposively Mod4 but that's not working anyways. I guess I will just go with alt m, since comma doesn't work
edit: n'm comma works, and Multi_key is only the right windows key. I set it to Mod1 Multi_key :ShowDesktop - right next to each other.

Btw, as far as the comment of having shortcuts on the mac mouse. What a double edged sword. You lose the functionality of the buttons for anything else. That's not even worth it since you use the mouse buttons much more than needing to minimize everything.

You don't lose the functionality of any button. The function is binded to a specific combination of buttons, not to the buttons themselves. Ctrl-click would pop up a menu, while you would still be able to use ctrl in combination of other buttons.

GenuineAdvantage:
Unless Ctrl is a mouse button that seems pretty goofy to me. But that's just me. If you have to press the keyboard might as well just put keyboard shortcuts.

Laukev7:
Ctrl-click is the standard replacement for right click on Macs, unless you have a two-button mouse (which I don't because that Mac doesn't have USB),
