Mousebutton 6 and 7?

Hello,

does someone know if there is a way to use more than the ‘standard’ five
mousebuttons (meaning: 3 buttons and the wheel) with SDL ?

Mouses with 5 (real) buttons plus wheel have become quit common (e.g.
the MS Intellimouse), so this would be a nice feature.

regards, and sorry if this question has been asked thousand times before
… sdl is a quit busy mailing list and I constantly fail to keep up
reading.

Thanks in advance,

Lonewolf.–

To my knowledge, extra mouse buttons are somewhat lacking in support in
SDL. I’ve seen many people have trouble with just the standard three
button + wheel set up.
