Oct 10, 2018 at 1:12 comment added Bennett Yeo I looked up a few logitech programmable mice with linux/windows keymap support, and found some forums claiming that they were able to load the macros in on windows and take it over to Linux. I just can't personally endorse a mouse with those assumptions in full confidence.

Oct 10, 2018 at 0:40 comment added Bennett Yeo Missed that, I also did a little more digging and it seems most programmable mice only support windows, or support windows/linux exclusively. It appears to be very hard to cull mice based on 'programmable' and triple OS support for keymapping software.
Oct 9, 2018 at 22:27 comment added William @BennettYeo " Note: the programming function and side buttons are not available for Mac OS, but the other function can be used normally." If it doesn't support Mac OS have to also wonder about linux.
Oct 9, 2018 at 21:31 comment added Bennett Yeo The mouse I linked you would theoretically handle driver-os mapping with its own vendor based software.
Oct 9, 2018 at 21:28 comment added William I have messed with Linux and it's mapping software tends to be lacking in my experience for a system wide copy and paste if it isn't hard wired.
Oct 9, 2018 at 21:20 comment added Bennett Yeo I don't believe any mouse exists that has pure hardware copy and paste functionality. Most people just use macros on gaming mice for things like this. For example, a mouse like this one that explicity supports windows/mac/windows should get the job done. Note: Not necessarily best price or best mouse, example mouse purely for argumentative purposes.
