imwheel - Program to support the "wheel" on some new mice
Various new mice, including the Microsoft IntelliMouse, and the
Logitech MouseMan+, Wheel Mouse, and others, now have a "wheel"
button in the middle of them. This wheel button acts both as a
standard button (by pressing it), and a wheel, which under MS
Windows may be used for scrolling windows around.

This program supports the wheel scrolling operation by one of
two means:
1. Some newer X servers support mapping the wheel to buttons
   4 and 5, which imwheel then captures and supports,
2. Using a patched version of gpm, the normal mouse events are
   passed on to the X server through /dev/gpmdata (gpm's standard
   "repeater" mode), and in addition wheel events are sent to another
   pipe, /dev/gpmwheel. imwheel picks up these events, and translates
   them.

non so se questo puo' servire..
(tieni conto che netscape e' fatto con un toolkit morto e sepolto..
ora tutte le applicazioni gtk e penso anche kde gestiscono l'evento scrolling.

ciao!
