Not unless the DOS mouse driver provides this functionality. Under
Windows it should be very possible (and easy?).
As for `generic wheel mice', most wheel mice use the Intellimouse
protocol. I for one do not own any MS hardware, but both my Logitech
mouse and Genius NetMouse, which has buttons instead of a wheel, work
using the same protocol. I guess this should be made clear in
readme.lnx when it is updated.
