right clicking in an IDL plot with a Mac [message #75661]

I am working on plotting a continuum on a spectrum using norm.pro.
The program calls for right clicking to show you are done clicking
points on your continuum. However, I am using a Mac and while the
normal way to right click with a Mac is to hold down control while you
click, that doesn't work on the IDL plot.

When I googled this issue, (literally right clicking for a mac in IDL)
the only somewhat helpful hint was to use
defaults write com.apple.x11 wm_click_through -bool true

However, their explanation is lost on me... if anyone knows how to fix
this issue and can make it blonde-simple (that's right, I'm blaming my
hair here) I'd appreciate it!
