I'm using trackball without a scroll wheel since my old trackball broke. I'm using OpenBox as my window manager and know how to set up most mouse/keybindings. What I don't know is how I would set it up so I can press maybe the Windows (super) key and move the trackball and have it interpreted by the system as input from a scroll wheel.

I don't know if it's possible to combine a mousebind and keybind in the rc.xml file.

That's minor compared to my space bar breaking. At least I was able to map the caps-lock key to act as my temporary space bar until the new keyboard gets here. That sure as hell slows my typing way down. :p
