Description-en: program to support non-standard buttons on mice in Linux
Many mice have side or "thumb" buttons that see limited use in Linux, as well
as a wheel that is not used by many older applications.
.
IMWheel supports these non-standard buttons and/or wheel operations by
allowing the user to map their input to specific key combinations depending
on the application in use.
