On ours, A/UX uses the left arrow key to emulate the middle
button of the 3 button mouse (unless this is the MIT X server). :-)

Has anyone given any thought to making window manager configuration
files useable across mouse platforms?  I don't want to maintain more
than one .awmrc (I just spent some time getting a .awmrc to work well
on a one button mouse platform).

Let's make life easier, it's already hard enough.
