Is there a way to detect mouse wheel scrolling?

There's nothing in the Mouse module, and the GUI module doesn't use it, so nope.

actually, someone who made forces (windsurfer) incorporated the mouse wheel (as well as the right button) into their game.

im not sure how but it's possible (and the source code for forces is out there)

 Mouse.ButtonChoose ("multibutton")
        var x, y, button, left, middle, right : int
        Mouse.Where (x, y, button)
        left := button mod 10           % left = 0 or 1
        middle := (button - left) mod 100   % middle = 0 or 10
        right := button - middle - left     % right = 0 or 100
        if left = 1 then
            put "left button down"
        end if
        if middle = 10 then
            put "middle button down"
        end if
        if right = 100 then
            put "right button down"
        end if

You know is your heart that you should have searched for it ;)

Well, actually the functionality is bugged. You can't detect more than one button click on the mouse at a time. See scrolling not clicking. Zren is correct Turing does not provide a way of detecting mouse wheel scrolling.
