If you've never tried using mouse gestures with Firefox or any other program, FireGestures is a great place to start, offering out-of-the-box functionality along with accessible advanced options.
With FireGestures, you can perform various commands with five types of mouse gestures:
- Mouse Gestures (Move mouse with holding right-click)
- Wheel Gestures (Scroll wheel with holding right-click)
- Rocker Gestures (Left-click with holding right-click and vice versa)
- Keypress Gestures (Mouse gesture with holding Ctrl / Shift key)
- Tab Wheel Gestures (Scrolling wheel on the tab bar)
We like the FireGestures extension, but we've also become accustomed to having system-wide mouse gestures with programs such as XGestures, and/or the Quicksilver plug-in Abacadabra (with functionality equal to the keypress gestures in FireGestures). Of course those programs are for the Mac only.
We're sure that someone out there has found a good Windows program to implement system-wide mouse gestures...or are we better off with program-specific solutions such as FireGestures?
