Well, one question that seems rather obvious, but no one has asked yet is:

	How does the Mac emulate a two button mouse?

As you know, most X workstations (hosts) use at least a 2 button
mouse, and some use 3.  Fortunately, on a two button mouse, X lets you
hold down *both* buttons to emulate the 3rd button, but how does
eXodus and other X packages for the Mac provide for the second and
third button?

Inquiring minds want to know...
