3-button-mouse emulating

3-button-mouse emulating

[Steven Woody]

Hi,

When using XWin as X server, it has a option let me emulate
3-button-mouse, but if I don't use XWin and x and X server ( this is
default when I start x window by running startx script), how do I do
the same thing?

Thanks.

Your question doesn't make much sense.

If you are asking how you add options like '-emulate3buttons' when using 
startx, then 'man startx' tells you

startx [ [ client ] options ... ] [ −− [ server ] [ display ] options ... ]

so e.g. startx -- -emulate3buttons

this only makes sense if the server accept the option
'--emulate3buttons'.  But the X server in cygwin 'x'  does not as I
know.

Look at the example again.  It's different from what you typed.
