GRASS itself doesn't provide any such emulation. Check the
documentation for the X server in case it provides its own emulation;
the assumption of a three-button mouse is sufficiently entrenched that
failure to provide an emulation is likely to be a serious problem (for
X software generally, not just GRASS).

You should be able to manage *files* however you wish. However, GRASS
maps aren't files, and must be managed using the tools provided (e.g. 
g.list, g.remove, g.rename, g.copy, or the equivalent tcltkgrass menu
options).
