   5 -- A set of bindings intended to make the mouse pull its weight.
   6 -- Fluxbox users should feel right at home.  This will be less
   7 -- useful without a mouse wheel, but still worth considering.
   8 --
   9 -- Partly it's an experiment to see how far one can get
  10 -- without using a keyboard in a window manager geared
  11 -- toward keyboard users.  But there's nothing inherently
  12 -- anti-mouse about Ion, and with minor adjustments I find it
  13 -- extremely capable.
  14 --
  15 -- To use, add to cfg_ion.lua: dopath("cfg_mouse")
