Yes, USE_MOUSE:TRUE enabled the mouse. And indeed, rolling the wheel
back and forth indeed does something, but whatever it does, it is not
scrolling that it is doing.
The normal build of ncurses (as in Debian's package) doesn't have the
mouse extension configured/compiled. So that only recognizes 4 buttons
(not the 5 needed to handle the scroll wheel).
Mouse wheel and 256-colors are features that ncurses supports that aren't
in Debian (or most other) packages, though they've been available for a
few years.
