NOTES:
1. In the X11 port, pressing the middle mouse button anywhere within the THE window, will result in the contents of the X selection being pasted where the text cursor is currently displayed. If you hold down any modifier key, such as SHIFT or CONTROL, that sequence is passed to THE and can be mapped. Therefore; PMB or RMD is NOT able to be used in THE, but C-PMB, C-RMB, S-PMB etc. can.
2. The button action DOUBLE_CLICKED will always be preceded by a CLICK action. This is the case for THE with ncurses or PDCurses. Therefore itis usually a good idea to have the CLICK action assigned to a cursor positioning command if the DOUBLE_CLICK for the same button is used.
