Hey all.

I have a touch screen N800 internet tablet that has an awesome version of Dosbox running on it.

Is there a way to simulate a right mouse click by editing the mapper.txt file and assigning it to a specific key?

I have sdl autolock = false

If not, is there any other tricky little work around to getting a right click through your emulator?

Thanks ahead!

Well, apparently with no one answering, I'm assuming there is no such solution for this.

I was kind of hoping for something as simple as changing the mapperfile to something like this:

key_rightclick "key 278"

But yeah, doesn't look such a key can be mapped.

Anyway, since touch screen handhelds are really being marketed as of late, any chance that in the next version of Dosbox you could account for a single stylus input simulating both mouse keys some how?

Thanks!

Is not present in the current version, won't be in the next version.

Okay, fair enough. 😀

But do you think that perhaps down the road you could have it so a single, hardware button on a device could toggle back and forth between left and right mouse clicks when the stylus touches the screen?
