Windows with a one-button mouse: how? by JimK 2009-05-08 03:19:11
A few weeks ago I posted a request for suggestions of different pointing devices, due to pains in my hands.

While doing something on the mac last night, it occurred to that pressing the mouse with my whole hand rather than just one finger is currently much more comfortable.

It then occurred to me that using Windows without a right button might be tricky. Googling turned up iMouse, but the author's terms forbid commercial use. While I wait for a reply to my request for clarification, do any UFies have other ideas?
