Exactly what I needed
Pros: Simple, easy, does not tax resources. Does everything you could need.
Cons: Nothing that I can think of.
Summary: I needed to remap a button on my Logitech mouse. Even SetPoint wouldn't let me do it the way I wanted, but this program [Key Remapper] did, and in a much less roundabout way. Quick, straight to the point, and absurdly easy to use. If you're looking for something to remap keys or mouse buttons to ANYTHING, you've found it.
