For an even more configurable mouse, check out the Ploopy mouse and trackballs: https://ploopy.co/
Fully open source, the mouse (that I own) uses QMK for its firmware. Which means I can use key binding layers rather than single buttons. In other words, one button acts like a shift button that modifies the action of the other buttons. So I have easy access to page up/down, mission control (what was exposé in macOS), paste plain (shift+option+cmd+v), etc etc. I don't have anything Emacs specific on the mouse, but my keyboard (Keychron Q10) has several macro keys that I have meta-x and ctrl-g bound to.
Very possible, yes: https://github.com/tumashu/vertico-posframe. You can position the box anywhere you want by configuring the parameter:
vertico-posframe-poshandler . posframe-poshandler-frame-top-center

i know how this is going to sound, but if your only experience is those filesystems on the sysvs and bsds of the world, i am compelled to say "real filesystem APIs have never been tried". in plan 9 and its userspace tools, there is no, for instance, udev-style "doing a bunch of perilous reads and writes and symlinks followed by throwing your hands up in the air and ioctling a struct" suffering. acme's API is really nice, despite being one of the clunkier, more hastily-designed ones by plan 9 standards.
> one of the biggest productivity tips is to learn to never scroll and never move windows around, resize them etc.
acme does well here in my experience:
- the typical path:line[:column] address will take you where you expect with a right click in acme or a plumb from anywhere else (including, say, a click handler in your terminal emulator of choice)
- any time a new window pops up, there are sane predictable defaults as to where that window goes
- the simple shortcuts of left-clicking a window's handle to expand it a bit or right-clicking it to take up the entire column do 99% of what you ever want as far as "window management". these shortcuts also warp your cursor to so spamming a few left clicks is entirely thoughtless
point being, the times i find myself scrolling or dragging are rare.
> I believe Emacs has something similar to it, the thing-at-point
it's worth noting that there are two separate things at play here: plumber is a generic user-space message broker, and right-clicking is acme's built-in shortcut for accessing it. thing-at-point is ~equivalent to the latter; the former can even give give emacs new powers; example: https://github.com/alcah/sink.el/blob/master/sink.el
