Any of you use gaming mouse buttons for productivity while coding?

    Not while coding per se, but on my G5 tower I used ControllerMate to program a USB PS2 controller as a mouse, with hotbuttons for app switching, quitting, closing windows, and scrolling.

    A mouse? What's that?

    Just kidding, I often use my mouse to navigate vim, tmux etc. The extra buttons on the other hand? I couldn't really care less. As far as I know, they're xf86 type buttons and Mate doesn't support those very well.

    No, but it's a pretty sweet idea

    I have my buttons mapped to Browser Back, Browser Forward and F5 (Site refresh).
    That's all you need as a web dev
