But as I don't use windowmaker I couldn't know if it was true on that. It's just that it's an option on all the gtk based DE's I've used as well as KDE and Plasma to reverse the mouse for "handedness" in their control panels. So I was hoping it might be an option for you. Maybe the option became inadvertently changed. But I guess not. :-( Does your Xorg log show any interesting clues? Sorry.
