Is there a way to right click with only the keyboard not using the mouse? I know that control + click executes the contextual menu by default. I want to access this menu without having to use the trackpad.
Got a tip for us?

At the risk of trumping a Demi-God here goes:
Turn on Mouse Keys under the Mouse Tab in the Universal Access menu (System Preferences). Now your numeric keypad works as a mouse and the '5' key works as a mouse click. So Ctrl-5 will be a right click. This works for a regular keyboard. Do the same for the keyboard on your PowerBook, but turn on Num Lock (F6) and now the 'I' key will serve as the click.

...and now I can click without a mouse! huzzah!
u know a little while back, i kinda found out the reverse of what ur looking fro by mistake on my girlfriends iBook.
if u rest two fingers on the touch pad, then click the button, it control clicks! she may have iScroll installed, it may be that, but i dont think so
