Using The Mouse; Copying And Pasting Text With X; More To Come; We Need Feedback - Red Hat ENTERPRISE LINUX 3 Reference Manual

viii Introduction

4. Using the Mouse

Red Hat Enterprise Linux is designed to use a three-button mouse. If you have a two-button mouse,
you should have selected three-button emulation during the installation process. If you're using three-
button emulation, pressing both mouse buttons at the same time equates to pressing the missing third
(middle) button.
In this document, if you are instructed to click with the mouse on something, that means click the left
mouse button. If you need to use the middle or right mouse button, that will be explicitly stated. (This
will be reversed if you've configured your mouse to be used by a left handed person.)
The phrase "drag and drop" may be familiar to you. If you're instructed to drag and drop an item on
your GUI desktop, click on something and hold the mouse button down. While continuing to hold
down the mouse button, drag the item by moving the mouse to a new location. When you've reached
the desired location, release the mouse button to drop the item.

5. Copying and Pasting Text With X

Copying and pasting text is easy using your mouse and the X Window System. To copy text, simply
click and drag your mouse over the text to highlight it. To paste the text somewhere, click the middle
mouse button in the spot where the text should be placed.

6. More to Come

The Red Hat Enterprise Linux Reference Guide is part of Red Hat's commitment to provide useful
and timely support to Red Hat Enterprise Linux users. Future editions feature expanded information
on changes to system structure and organization, new and powerful security tools, and other resources
to help you extend the power of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux system — and your ability to use it.
That is where you can help.
