Is it possible to simulate a double left click by using the middle mouse button down event?
The reason I'm looking to do this is because it would be a lot easier to single middle button click on a unit to select all units of that type in the visible screen instead of double clicking a unit. I know this seems minor, but I believe it would help me on my micro.
If it's necessary, I have knowledge in several programming languages, but am unsure if it's even necessary to program something.

Decency provides an excellent recommendation for selecting multiple units without external resources. If you insist on achieving exactly what you ask for, you can use AutoHotkey. A sample script which accomplishes this could be:
Simply save the above text as a
.ahk
file and open it to enable the script. From then on, whenever you middle-click in Starcraft / Starcraft 2, it'll double-click instead.Regarding the legality of macros, this post on the battle.net forums implies that macros that are not used for automation are allowed.
