rigth button for copy and paste

I'm running on a laptop with no middle button so I'm wondering if where is some way to make the right button "paste" in Kde or just the default terminal?
Or does it exist a terminal with that possibility?

(have to work fast ;) )

on my laptop, i click both left and right buttons simultaniously.

This mimics the behavior of the middle button.

I know about this feature but I want to press just one, right :).

you can see if you can change the button commands with xmodmap

for example:

Source code

 
1

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 2"


Would make the right button behave like the middle button on a 3 button mouse.

Nice :)

The command is only valid for the current KDE session, as soon as you log out, it's gone.
If you want to make this permanent, either put the command in the file ~/.xinitrc or put pointer = 1 3 2 in ~/.Xmodmap (you can create the text file if it does not exist) and type xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap to apply the change.
