Hi Gerald,

Thanks for this fine piece of work!

I only had to do one small change in #sendMouseWheelEvents and 
#sendMouseWheelEvents: . Squeak only runs on Cog VMs. Cuis can run on a 
broader set of VMs, like Dave's 32 bit interpreter for 64 bit Linux. In 
these cases, vmParameter 48 is not available, so I handled that case.

I tested briefly on my Mac, and saw no problems. The "wheel through 
keyboard" events sent by the VM work the same as before.

I just pushed it to GitHub.

Thanks!
