This gave me the impression that clickhack would work as an alternate method of right-click for Hildon apps. Is that incorrect?

I just got around to testing this out. And when I hit the Full-screen key. It's like a toggle. I'm not sure if it's related to the default toggle fullscreen behavior or not. But if it's toggled on, certain parts of the touchscreen don't work correctly and buttons are only highlighted not pressed. Which was weird at first, as afraid the touchscreen was dying. But then x11forwarded into my desktop and taps in gedit were right-clicks, it was then that I realized it might be toggled on. Pressed full-screen key. Left clicks work in OS2008 and elsewhere, w00t. Thanks a lot for this.

I noticed that behavoir too, but not always. I do not really fully understand why the clickhack "hangs" sometimes.
The normal way to use it should be to hold down the button (which has no effect in non-hildonized apps) and the trigger a right-click when touching the screen.
When released it should be a left click again.
Workarround is to kill the clickhack-process, sometimes I managed to reset it with numberous press and releases of the fullscreen button.
Sorry that I can't be more precise, but I use this function not that often.
Maybe the author can give some hints for further investigations?

No, in hildonized apps you achieve a rigth-click always with a long tap on the screen- clickhack is for apps where this doesn't work- that's the way I understood it.

yeah.
I didn't write it for the Hildon environment but for KDE or other WindowManagers(in deblet ,easy debian/ubuntu etc.).
I should have made this point clear at the first post...
<fixed>BTW, I found some bugs that might provoke reported errors.
I'll upload the new version of this app in 2-3 days.
</fixed>
Thanks testers.

Thank you for the useful app! Would you please publish this here when it is available? Have a nice weekend.

UPDATE: Just installed your new binary, I will test ist and report in here... Thanks again!
