Dear All,

Sorry for the slightly off-topic subject.

We have recently bought a few iMacs for crystallography. I'm not keen on
the supplied "mighty mouse" so I have switched to using a microsoft
3-button wheel mouse. I would like to configure it so that it behaves as
it would with other unix systems such as RH Linux.

i.e.
(1) double-clicking with LH button on a file name selects ALL of the
file name, not just up to the first full stop.
(2) clicking the scroll wheel pastes the selected text AND it can be
done multiple times without re-selecting.
(2) I would like these functions to work in terminal windows, the ccp4i
gui and web pages (and probably a few other things I haven't thought of
yet!) AND be able to transfer the selected text between applications.

I have installed the microsoft intellipoint drivers that seem to give
more control over configuring the various buttons through "system
preferences", but I still can't get what I want.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Dave Lawson
