My bad ;< I assumed that the #override \n\ was some type of comment,
and cut it from my last post.
Indeed, it is required, and does not work without it.
This is _exactly_ what was in my ~/.Xdefaults:
mutt.vt100.translations: #override \n\
None<Btn5Down>: string(>>) \n\
None<Btn4Down>: string(<<) \n
Now I have this, which also works:
mutt.vt100.translations: #override \n\
None<Btn4Down>: string(<<) \n\
None<Btn5Down>: string(>>) \n
I cut-and-pasted from the original email, and -- somehow -- had trailing
whitespace, as you surmised.
Now, sequence does *not* matter, and I can scroll with my mouse wheel in
mutt -- just as long as I use xterm, instead of rxvt.
Thank you, for your ideas and patience . . .
