If you're talking about implementing MouseListener and maybe showing the
a pop-up context menu, the recommended method is to check on
MouseEvent.isPopupTrigger() for MouseListener.mouseClicked(),
mousePressed() and mouseReleased(). It's all to do between Swing
implementations differences between Windows and UNIX.
