My mouse wheel scrolls 3 lines at a time (in the Emacs screen) ! I tried the following link, but it didn't succeed. http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SmoothScrolling Kindly guide. |

I just tried the following, and it worked just as expected: Do you get errors when you start emacs? Have you, in any other way, configured mouse behaviour in emacs? Try a default .emacs configuration and add those lines, to see if something else interferes. Jazz, I do get errors when I evaluate the expressions using, Ctrl-x Ctrl-e My mouse cursor was on (right side) 1 in the below code: (setq mouse-wheel-scroll-amount '(1 ((shift) . 1))) I pressed Ctrl-x Ctrl-e to evaluate the expression and it resulted in the following errors : and my above code dis appeared !

Since this seems to be a syntax error, try the following: (setq mouse-wheel-scroll-amount '(0.01))

I'm happy to help. You could use a site like http://pastebin.com/ for posting your .emacs file. Remember to set the post expiration to one month.

Thanks Jazz, All that code I was trying till now was w.r.t -nw option i.e. When Emacs is opened like this : emacs -nw abc.c Now I tried that code after opening Emacs like : emacs abc.c But Now when I scroll the wheel of my mouse, the cursor remains still and the screen scrolls, that is very annoying, I want the cursor to move not the screen.

The cursor should automatically be set to the top or bottom of your current display if you scroll down/up far enough. Per default, the cursor doesn't follow your scrolling, though. The following minor mode probably matches your needs: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/centered-cursor-mode.el

What exactly, from the many solutions at the link you supplied, did you try? Did you try "mouse wheel & keyboard scroll one line at a time"?
Jazz,
I tried the following: 1. "mouse wheel & keyboard scroll one line at a time" 2. "Sniplets: (setq scroll-conservatively 10000)"
I added the above two codes in ~/.emacs but they didn't have any effect !
@anishakaul: Did you re-evaluate your .emacs file once you'd added the code so that the changes were picked up? (If in doubt make the changes and then restart emacs).
I shall try that and let you know after 2 days,
Thanks
