For me not even scrolling in vim/vi works... (could you describe how you
achieve this?)
The function mouse-wheel-mode is a toggle. If it's off, then you can type C-h k
and then operate the mouse wheel or scroll via the trackpad. In the echo-area
("mini-buffer") you can see that GNU Emacs reports having received multiple
<mouse-4> or <mouse-5> events. The function mouse-sel-mode is also a toggle –
which I think is not very useful (I have it set off).
In GNU Emacs you have to load the xt-mouse "package":
(require 'xt-mouse)
and then switch that mode on:
(xterm-mouse-mode)
It will allow you to select windows (buffers) with the mouse cursor by clicking
into one and clicking into the menu bar will show you in a buffer the contents
of the selected menu and enable you to make a choice. Clicking onto a file name
in dired-mode will open that file for editing in a new window (buffer). GNU
Emacs will also receive mouse scroll events. In my rather dumb setup the
<mouse-4> and <mouse-5> events are mot bound to any function so that I cannot
scroll... (and also in a default setup they're not bound to anything)
This works in xterm – but not in Apple's Terminal. Hopefully if works in iTerm2!
