I use laptop a lot and have no mouse. I use trackpoint which substitutes the mouse very well except scrolling. Is it possible to bind scrolling of windows to - for example - 'Ctrl + middle + mouse?
I was using Ubuntu recently and found out that such feature is there. I mean if middle button is pressed then mouse moving scrolls windows content.

After longer research it turned out that it's matter of Xorg (instead of openbox as i thought initially).
I found 2 solutions:
Get zip from link (it's compressed dir from ubuntu with the feature):
http://speedy.sh/jfpqM/emulate-scroll.zip
Create backup of Your system dir:
$ sudo cp -r /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d-bck
Replace dir "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/" with the one from zip. That's it.
get the dedicated program for that.. more info at links:
