I don't know how to do exactly this, but I do know how to map Keystrokes to Button clicks using the MouseKeys functionality:
----------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh # From X11 MouseKeys feature, see /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/compat/mousekeys echo "Press the \"Home\" key to toggle this feature on and off" echo "Press the \"End\" key to simulate a Button1 doubleclick" xmodmap -e "keycode 97 = Pointer_EnableKeys" # Home key for toggling xmodmap -e "keycode 103 = Pointer_DblClick1" # Map End to doubleclick 1 # one could use 103 => 115 to use the Left Windoze Flag button. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- So, after running the above, you would hit "Home", hear a long beep, then hitting "End" send DblClick1. Hit "Home" again to get back to normal "End". I use the above sort of thing to simulate various button clicks and even drags on my laptop (I remap those stupid windows "only" keys 115, 116, and 117). With a little playing around you could get this to map Button 2 to to Pointer_DblClick1, but I don't see how. I imagine it could be done...
