It's worth remembering that since system 8, Mac single-button mouse
users can control-click to get the equivalent of a right mouse-button
click. Revolution handles this fine, treating both actions as a mouse
button 3 event. If you use a 2 button mouse on a mac you can
right-click. With a one button mouse you just control-click to get the
same result. So there is usually no real need to duplicate the
functionality.
Still it can be a pain when writing the documentation.

I think maybe the problem arises with inconsiderate programmers (I am
referring to myself here, none of you guys) who create functionalities
that can only be accessed by right-clicking.
This leaves one-button mouse users out in the cold.

Exactly.
The whole how-many-buttons argument is dizzying to me. A two button
mouse has ADDED functionality, not supplanted or changed
functionality. Click a two button mouse with your index finger only,
and its a one-button mouse. Nothing could be simpler. Don't use the
scroll wheel, same thing... one button functionality without a
scroll. If you're smart enough to use a computer, you're smart enough
to simplify your experience by using your index finger to click, if
that's what you need to do. If you don't want scrolling and
contextual menus, just use your index finger. (JUYIF!) I just don't
get it.
