Thanks for the link. This is exactly what I want except that I need it to work with a serial mouse, not USB.

I already have a bag of old serial mice. thanks Thomas On Thu, Mar 04, 2004 at 03:00:37PM -0800, Ezequiel Panepucci wrote: > > You may want to check out evrouter: > http://bedroomlan.dyndns.org/~alexios/coding_evrouter.html > > Cheers, > Zac > > > On Thu, 4 Mar 2004 thomas-gpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > > > Hello, > > I was wondering if anyone could help me with this problem. > > It may be easy but I've browsed the web for ages looking for > > a solution and haven't found one. > > > > I'd simply like to bind a command to each button on a mouse. > > The mouse will not be used as a pointer.
