WFM. :-)
You should have a look around your Control Panel - Mouse settings. Depending on which driver you use, it's probably possible to put rxvt on an "exception list" - tell the mouse driver not to use its own wheel handling, but let rxvt figure it out itself.
Interesting that it would work for you. When I type "rxvt --version", it informs me that "--version" isn't a valid option but then proceeds to answer the question anyway. Or appears to. Maybe the reason the option isn't valid is not that it doesn't exist, but because it lies.
;-) It lists some compiler options, but wheel mouse support is not among them.
My "mouse" is an IBM trackpoint "eraser head" on a laptop. There is no setting in the control panel for an exception list.
Thanks for the suggestion. It was worth trying. Any others? ;-)
