In previous releases of SCO Open Desktop, if you wanted to emulate three-button mouse behavior with a two-button mouse, you had to remap mouse triggers by modifying several resource lines in your personal resource file. For this release, however, you do not have to make any configuration changes to obtain this functionality.
If you have a correctly installed two-button mouse on your system, the operating system automatically maps the mouse buttons so you can then perform the same tasks as a user with a three-button mouse.
When you use a two-button mouse, the left button on the mouse performs all the functions of mouse button 1, and the right button on the mouse performs the functions of mouse button 3. To simulate mouse button 2, click both buttons simultaneously. This technique is also referred to as ``chording.''
