Do you use mwheel(.el[c])?

Check the variables inhibit-startup-* and customise what's needed.

Hi,

Sorry but I'm quite a emacs newbie, where do I find mwheel(.el[c]) and
inhibit-startup-*? I tried finding a .emacs but it does not even exist, so I
created it in ~/ and added mouse-wheel-mode in but it didn't do anything.
