THIS makes sense to me. In fact, I've learned here, and will bring
this to my writers.

========================
... I always give instructions using the "default" mouse configuration
(the right-hand configuration). And I include in the preface a
note that instructions are for the default configuration and users
who have altered their mouse behavior must adjust accordingly --
I figure if they're intelligent enough to reconfigure their
mouse they can make the mental swap in my instructions.
Yes, I admit that this is not the most elegant solution, but
I prefer it to the hastle that results from numbering the
buttons. Somebody (?) (I "disremember" who) said primary and
secondary. I like this! Just might try it someday!
