[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

This makes sense because it's a context menu which is mouse-3 in modern UIs.

So Stefan writes at the link: "Rather flyspell needs to be fixed to
pop up its menu on mouse-3 since it's really more like a context
menu. I.e. I recommend a M-x report-emacs-bug about it."

I agree with this.  Any objections to the attached patch?

This would be a backward-incompatible change, so we cannot just change
it because someone asked for that.  I, for example, use that menu on
mouse-2 all the time.

OK.  How about adding the mouse-3 key binding without removing the mouse-2 one?

Fine with me, but that button is already bound to
mouse-save-then-kill.  I never use it, but what will those who do say?

Since this key binding is only in flyspell-mouse-map, it will only be
rebound when the mouse pointer is over a misspelled word.  Note that
mouse-2 is normally bound to mouse-yank-primary.

I therefore don't think it will be a big problem in practice.  On the
contrary, I believe that having the context menu on the right mouse
button will feel more natural and be more discoverable to users.

I have attached an updated patch below.  If there are no objections to
it, would this change be safe for the release branch, or should it go
to master?

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas

I don't see how this resolves the backward-compatibility issue, sorry.

Once again, we are not talking about adding a new feature from
scratch, we are talking about changing a very old behavior.  So
whether it's more natural or not is of secondary importance for this
decision.

I'm okay with making this conditional on some user option, but I
object to an unconditional change.

In any case, we don't add new features on the release branch, we only
fix bugs there.

Thanks.

Sorry for the very late reply here.

The change in behaviour is what it is, but I think that users should be
able to get used to the new behaviour.

In fact, they might even like it more.  I think there is something to be
said about (in this case) aligning ourselves with most other editors or
programs people use: Firefox, LibreOffice, VSCode, etc.

(This goes even for users that don't read NEWS: The words are clearly
highlighted, so it should be intuitive and apparent what is going on (at
least after a while): to invoke mouse-save-then-kill, simply click
slightly to the left or right of the highlighted word.)

That is a good solution, if the default is to enable it.  That would
allow users to easily switch back if they don't like the new behaviour.

I think it should be an opt-in behavior, conditional on a user
option.  We can later see if it is popular enough to make that the
default behavior.

I don't understand this part of the change: "C-c $" does pop up a menu
for me.

"... can be optionally bound to ..." is better, IMO.

In the future, a more general option would be preferable
that would enable using the right mouse button to pop up
context menus in more places in Emacs like most other apps do
nowadays, i.e. something like cua-emulation mode but for mouse-3.

(Caveat: I haven't followed this thread, at all.)

But if `mouse-3' behavior that allows for context-specific
popup menus is what's sought, then `mouse3.el' fulfills
that need, and with a great deal of flexibility.  This has
been the case since 2010.

Not only does it provide for context menus, but it does so
without sacrificing the other useful vanilla `mouse-3'
behaviors, which are also useful.  It adds to, instead of
replaces, existing `mouse-3' behavior.  It's compatible
with what Emacs users expect in general for `mouse-3'.

Agreed, that would be very useful.

Thanks, I didn't know about this library but will look into it in
detail.  Is there anything stopping us from incuding this library in
Emacs?  Would it be suitable for general use?

Yes, no problem.

As is generally the case with my libraries, there can
be code that accommodates backward compatibility, and
there can be code that does something extra/better if
some of my libraries (or some other libraries) have
been loaded.

For vanilla GNU Emacs such conditional code can be
removed or the conditional test can be removed.  E.g.,
(fboundp 'string-insert-rectangle) is for Emacs 24.4+.

Examples of code that makes use of other libraries:

* If library `isearch-prop.el' has been loaded then
  menu items `Isearch' and `Isearch Regexp' are there
  for searching the region.  (Submenu `Search/Replace'.)

* If library `highlight.el' has been loaded then menu
  items `Copy Text Properties' and `Yank Copied Text
  Properties' are available for acting on the region.
  (Submenus `Copy' and `Remove/Replace'.)

* If library `boxquote.el' has been loaded then menu
  items `Boxquote' and `Unboxquote' are there.
  (Submenu `Change Text'.)

* If `unaccent.el' is loaded then item `Remove Accents'.
  (Submenu `Change Text'.)

* If `highlight.el' is loaded then submenu `Highlight'
  is available.

* If `ebnf2ps.el' is loaded then `BNF PostScript Analyze',
  `BNF PostScript Print', and `BNF PostScript Save'.

* If `bookmark+.el' then `Highlight Bookmarks' and
  `Create Bookmarks Matching'.  (Submenu `Misc'.)

* If `help-fns+.el' then `Describe File' and `Describe
  Package'.  (Submenu `Thing at Pointer'.)

* If `highlight.el' then items `Highlight Symbol' and
  `Unhighlight Symbol'.  (Submenu `Thing at Pointer'.)
