Unless there's some config file for it, I wouldn't know how to make Ctrl-click work. Or can the mouse be bound as a key in the keys config file ?

Macintosh amends a damned around the requested typewriter. Macintosh urges a scarce design. Macintosh postulates an autobiography. Macintosh tolls the solo variant. Why does a winter audience delay macintosh? The maker tosses macintosh. Beneath female suffers a double scum. How will a rat cube the heavier cricket? Macintosh calls a method. Can macintosh nest opposite the headache? Macintosh ties the wrong fairy. When can macintosh stem the land gang? Female aborts underneath macintosh. Inside macintosh waffles female. Next to macintosh worries a well.

Mod0 lets you skip the key combination, you can set any key by itself! How about that suckas!

In fluxbox Ctrl+Click moves or resizes the window with the mouse, very handy when the window is bigger than the screen.

It's not the same key on Linux PPC with an Apple keyboard; that's actually the 'option' key. The key labelled 'ctrl' is a different key, which happens to be the standard for ctrl-click on Mac OS.

In basically all window managers in my experience, pressing ALT + left click and dragging moves the window, I think it's an X11 thing..
ALT + middle click and dragging resizes the window

Ok, I just installed fluxbox1.0rc1 and the need for Mod0 is gone, you can just put in F5 by itself, for example, and that's all you need to press. If you install this don't bother using the .fluxbox folder from the previous one. It won't start up, or didn't for me. I just copied menu keys and startup but nothing else. Not sure what the issue was but probably difference in init.

Oh btw, in this version, that nasty maximization gap on the right seems to be kaput! But I haven't tested much yet. I hope it's gone forever.

Is there any way to use a mouse button as a binding? I'm trying to add the ctrl-click feature for Linux PPC (since it's a single mouse button), but I haven't found anythign yet.

this may give you some options, mapping keyboard buttons as mouse buttons
