Setting Up the Mouse for Left-Hand Use
You can control the mouse with your right or left hand. When you use the
mouse with your left-hand, you may find it easier to reverse the button
functions. When the functions are reversed, the right mouse button is
used for normal clicking and dragging, and the left button is for
displaying shortcut menus (right-clicking).
