Follow-up Comment #22, bug #14155 (project mc):

> Another, smaller issue, is that the scrolling happens a screenful at a
time. It would be more intuitive if it scrolled a few lines at a time.

kind of user preference or option, "slow-scrolling mouse wheel" or something
like that?

I agree with this, it is very disconcerting.  Usually I set the wheel to go 3
to 5 times what the up or down-arrow does; as it is mc does over 30 times what
the down arrow does.

Perhaps when slow-link mode is enabled pagedn makes sense, but not locally.

I don't see where/how MC is configured in gnome.  I run MC on the console or
in xterms, without gnome running.  Any more details on how to fix the btn4
btn5 beghaviour?

Thanks.
