I couldn't find this in the FAQ (maybe it should be added?). How do
you bind the mouse buttons to new functions. 

I tried "(define-key mouse-map x-button-s-right 'x-find-file)", but it
didn't work. I tried preceeding with (provide 'x-mouse) but that
didn't help. I'm guessing I have to set some hook here (ie when the
x-mouse.el file is read) but I don't know which one.

Thanks in advance,
