SourceNav 4.52 and mouse wheel

SourceNav 4.52 and mouse wheel

[punt]

I have XFree 4.02 with an explorer mouse.  I enabled the ZAxisMapping, and my 
mouse wheel works in all my kde windows (and netscape 6.1) fine.  But it does 
not work in SourceNav 4.52.  Anything Special I have to do?

This is runnin linux on a i386 architecture.

Wait, mostly.

You could go in and try and hack the code: you can bind Button-4 and
Button-5 events to things in Tk.  However, things should become easier
once Source Navigator can use standard Tcl and Tk versions---for one
thing, more recent versions support mouse wheels by default.

Hmm, ok. This use to work with my old Codefusion version however.

Well, it works for me.
XFree 4.0.1, Debian 2.2, gpm+imwheel, kde2, logitech pilot mouse
For sourcenav, no special configuration was needed.

Extract out of XF86Config :
Section "InputDevice"
 
# Identifier and driver
 
    Identifier  "Mouse1"
    Driver      "mouse"
    Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
    Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
    Option "Buttons" "6"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons"
"no"                                                       
EndSection

regards,
Brecht

OK, it's presumably imwheel.  I'm using a similar configuration, only
without imwheel, and the Debian packages for sourcenav don't do
anything with wheel events (whereas lots of other applications do).

So that's a workable immediate solution: use imwheel.  (I still prefer
native support where possible.)
