;;; Commentary:
;; No matter how I set the scrolling rate of the mouse wheel, it
;; always seemed either too slow or too fast. So this code sets the
;; rate dynamically, based on how fast I turn the wheel. Tries to,
;; anyway.
;; To start it up, call `kon-mwheel-bind-buttons'.
;; TO DO:
;; * Port to XEmacs.
;; * Support sideways scrolling with another wheel.
;; * Clear the timestamp ring if the wheel changes direction.
