If I would open a popup menu, I would have used this ;-)
But right mouse button is used to scroll the map.

I'll think about this (since I planed to include a context menu anyway
which conflicts with the current right mouse button scheme).

Maybe I'll let the user scroll via cursor direction keys and via middle
mouse button (like GIMP). So users with three mouse buttons can as quick
move around as now and users of macs can move too ;-).


I'll think about this mouse button stuff and all. Thank you all for the
good feedback. THAT is what a lonely coder like me needs to not get
detached from the real world :-)


Ciao, Imi.
