Click-Move-Click? Do you really use that?
All I can say is .. YUCK! Implementing that would not only be
a pain, but wouldn't be possible without really screwing things up.
At least, not without providing your own sizer and mover. The left
handed thing was good though. I'm glad you brought it up, even
though I'm right handed like everyone else. There really should be
no reason why you can't allow both buttons to be the same though
(if you dump graf_ functions and use rectangles instead). In fact,
you could drag an object with the right button and select a different
object (while dragging) with the left button no problem :-) Definately
non-modal. Add more x+y variables to evnt_multi and you could support
more mice :-)
