IMWheel is a universal mouse wheel and mouse stick translator for X Windows 
using either a special version of gpm and its /dev/gpmwheel FIFO or the 
support for a ZAxis on the mouse built into X.  Utilizing the input from gpm 
or X Windows, imwheel translates mouse wheel and mouse stick actions into 
keyboard events using the XTest extension to X.  Use xdpyinfo for information 
on the supported extensions in your X server.

This build script has a patch that disables the configurator appearing when 
you mouse up and down on the root window.  I did this because it stopped the 
ability for workspace changing in fluxbox and other WMs, and it would also 
pop up at the most annoying times ;)  However, the configurator window can 
still be found with the "-c" switch.

If you do NOT wish to apply this patch, run the script with PATCH=no in the
environment (e.g. PATCH=no sh imwheel.SlackBuild)
