Thx!
The shift part however is necessary in those cases mentioned where the
program has broken mouse support..

Also for scrolling the bash history..
The way I sent the patch in, it works quite nicely. I think a man page
section and an option to turn off this automatic alt-screen
wheel-key-sequence translation would be good, too?
attached is manual section from a previous patch iteration, bake as you
see fit.
