Not much software uses that middle button, though it is defined in
the protocol.  The only thing in recent memory I can think of is
Rix 2005 paint program.  I don't use that any more, but I think it
was used to nail down the corners of a polygon or something like
that.  You can emulate the third button by chording the L and R
buttons on the two button mouse; that might be handled by the
driver.o
