we discovered on the Pharo dev list that the key combination used to fake wheel events - ctrl
+ arrowKey - may be a bit too simple. Apparently
ctrl+horizontalArrowKey is a standard in-use combo in Linux and Windows,
so adding horizontal wheel events broke some users' workflows. So I
propose "ctrl + alt + shift + cmd + arrowKey".<br>
The new combo is:</p>
<ul class="task-list">
<li>very unlikely to be typed</li>
<li>backward-compatible with existing Pharo and Squeak images, which only checks that either cmd or ctrl is pressed</li>
<li>frees up ctrl + arrow for our Linux/Windows friends</li>
</ul><p>For Pharo, there is:</p><p><ul><li><a href="https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm/pull/72">https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm/pull/72</a></li><li>Fogbugz Issue 15209: "Mouse Wheel Events
Keyboard Clash", with a slice all ready on the image side once the VM patch is
integrated.</li></ul></p><p>NB: I changed the combo in the VM for Mac OS and OSX. Are these the only two
platforms that fake wheel events? I searched a bit but didn't see
similar logic for other platforms...</p></div></div>
