No, KDE applications do not use X resources.

OS/Compiler notes: 

Hi,

on http://koala.ilog.fr/colas/mouse-wheel-scroll/#curses you can see a method to teach mouse wheel scolling to non-X applications.

Here is a simpler explanation:

It involves two steps: first include something like this into your .Xdefaults: 

*vt100.translations: #override\n\
            <Btn4Down>,<Btn4Up>: string("^[OA")\n\
      <Btn5Down>,<Btn5Up>: string("^[OB")\n\

Merge the resources:
xrdb -merge .Xdefaults

Then start pine like this:

xterm -e pine

The terminal will pick up the properties above and translate wheel movements (Btn4/Btn5) into scrolling.

This works perfectly with xterm. It does not work *at all* with konsole.

Do you plan to ever include support for common X resources like these into konsole?
