On a standard mouse; 
button 1 is the left mouse button, 
button 2 is the middle button (press the scroll wheel down),
button 3 is the right button,
button 4 means scroll the mouse wheel one way,
button 5 means scroll the wheel the other way.  

Exotic mice might have more buttons.  If you want to be 
difficult you can reassign buttons in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, 
but I strongly discourage that.  

On the keyboard; <alt>, <control>, and <shift> should be 
obvious.  Very old keyboards do not have a Super/Windows/Tux 
key, most have a Windows logo on a key between the Control 
and Alt keys.  (One on each side of the keyboard.)  Also, if 
you have a European keyboard there is one more key than on 
a US keyboard, and the left and right Alt keys are different.  

"<Super><button5>" means hold down one of the keys with a 
Windows logo on it and scroll the mouse wheel.  If you are 
very lucky you might have pictures of penguins rather than
windows.  

Off topic: 
"Top-posting" is normal for most e-mail and some USENET 
groups.  "Bottom posting is more normal around here.  Be prepared 
to trim stuff that you are not replying to.  I usually add an 
"editor's mark" like "[snip]" to indicate that I have deleted 
stuff.  Anyone who wants to see the original can easily go back 
to an older message.  I am accessing this as a news group via 
nntp at gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel.accessibility although I guess 
that you are using it as e-mail.  Consider using a news reader 
rather than a mail agent.  It is also possible to look at old 
posts with a web browser.  

Also if your signature starts with <newline> dash dash space <newline> 
most news readers will recognize it as a signature and automatically 
not include it any reply.
