Universal Scrolling refers to a software function within a mouse driver that allows a scroll wheel to work with programs that do not natively support that method of input. Usage of the term is not standardized; specific behaviors, programming methodologies, and compatibility with applications may vary between drivers from different vendors.
If a program supports scroll wheels natively, the Universal Scrolling feature will generally not interfere with the native implementation.

Famous quotes containing the word universal:
“I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.”
—R.J. Hollingdale (b. 1930)
