There's no reaction at all or it doesn't work as you expected?

These settings seem to be alright, at least they work for me ;-)

It might be that imwheel finds a match in a section *above* your "Netscape"-section,
so it is using these settings instead. Try sending the whole .imwheelrc (maybe not to
the list, just to me)

1. argument (e.g. None): When pressing this key of your keyboard and
2. argument (one of  Up|Down|Left|Right): turning one of your wheel in that direction

3. argument (e.g: Up): imwheel outputs this key to the window your mouse cursor is in

4. argument: How many times the 3. argument is to be sent to the window
5. argument: How long imwheel waits before "releasing" the key during its simulated
key presses
6. argument: How long imwheel should wait before sending the next key press

Good luck,
