I know this is not video related but I am getting desperate because I can't find any way/how or any program that does it, so im asking it here

I use the Mousekeys feature in the accessibility tools under the control panel to click with the keyboard for a number of reasons of which it allows me to click faster with the keyboard, I don't have to hear the load click noise that my mouse makes every single time i have to click the mouse, and it also doesn't annoy my surrounding co-workers when the office is totally silent.
Microsoft's Mousekeys features are however not so customizable. Usually the numpad 5 key is used to click and the surrounding keys are used to move the mouse. but I only need to use that one key the number 5 on the numpad to click and I don't need anything else. but it seems that you have to hit another key to then use 5 as the right mouse button. that takes away some time and is a hassle to do everytime you want to left mouse click.

So I am asking Does anyone know of a program that can do something similar to what the mousekeys feature can do, or that can allow you to click with the keyboard. thanks.

programming forum? I didn't know there was a programming forum. Do I have to repost it there or can a moderator kindly move it there?
