I agree. My new mouse has a 4th button, and it's in such a
fingerbreaking position (behind the mousewheel!) that I've never used
it yet. Of course this is a problem of my mouse (I've seen others with
a "practical" location for the button), but still. 3 buttons should be
enough for anyone :-)
Seriously though, first let the Mac port stabilize. Once that's done,
is it really worth adding more mouse buttons to allegro 4? Allegro 5
is bound to be very flexible in the number of buttons / axes, so it
won't be a problem there.
