Hi,

I've recently bought a mouse with a mousewheel on it. I'd like to use
it for scrolling in Mathematica, of course. But I can't seem to find 
any documentation on how to do this.

The mousewheel events are sent to applications as buttons 4 and 5,
corresponding to up/down on the mousewheel. I've setup translations for
many other X-window apps by looking at the page:

Do you know how to configure Mathematica to use such a mousewheel?
