I've occasionally thought about this, but never got sufficiently motivated to figure out a suitable configuration UI. Key-bindings configuration was quite a pain to get working, and that can borrow heavily from gtk, while button-config can't, so it would be worse. Last time I checked, gdk supports 5 buttons, but one of them is always going to be reserved for your basic select/activate/drag. I suppose combinations are feasible, in which case button-presses can't be acted upon immediately. And there are mouse "gestures". Handling all this gets quite messy. I tried to > add a button > click to the key bindings, but it wouldn't take the button click. Indeed. IIRC there's some X-related button-mapping process. You may be able to map buttons to a keypress there, and then setup a keypress-bound action in e2. > > For example, I'd like to move up directory off of button-2 to the back > button. > I'd also like to remove 'hide output pane' from button-2 and put in its > place > 'paste' the highlighted string into the command window (if there is a > command for that.)

Any filepath (not just name, but maybe that should be relaxed) listed in output pane can be double-clicked, or right-clicked to show a menu including assigned commands for that file, if any.
