Einzelheiten
i've been trying to configure teraterm so that mouse wheel events translate to VT cursor up/down key escape sequences. so far, zero success. the problem appears to be that the TranslateWheelTo Cursor setting in teraterm.ini is being ignored, and taken as always being set to false.
the sequence i've been using to enable the mouse is as follows:
ESC [?1000h ESC [?1h
the first line (...1000h) turns on mouse reporting - mouse click events are reported correctly. the second line (...1h), as far as i can tell, should enable 'application cursor mode', which should cause the mouse wheel to NOT scroll the TeraTerm window, but instead send cursor up/down escape codes. instead, the window just continues to scroll. note that i do see the cursor keys themselves return alternate cursor escape sequences (ESC OA etc instead of ESC [A etc) as expected
is this a bug, or am i missing something else?

followup:
i think i can now understand how TeraTerm is working.
ESC [?1h changes cursor key responses from ESC "[A" etc to ESC"OA" etc. it also turns on mouse wheel to cursor key (original) sequence translation. ie, mouse wheel generates ESC "[A". mouse wheel translation can be considered a 'later' addition in that traditional terminals didn't have mouses.
ESC [?1000h inhibits the mouse wheel generating cursor key sequences, instead (if the mouse mode used supports it) enabling mouse wheel reporting as button 4/5 events.
as such, there is no way to have BOTH (a) mouse click reporting AND (b) mouse wheel translation to cursor key sequences at the same time. none of the documention makes this entirely clear, and the matter is confused by slightly different terms being used to describe the same thing.
might i suggest reworking this page: https://ttssh2.osdn.jp/manual/en/usage/tips/appkeypad.html to read "Application cursor mode
also, adding a third option to the setting:
TranslateWheelToCursor = on | off | forced
where if set to FORCED then mouse wheel translation to cursor key sequences always occur, irrespective of any mouse mode setting.
i believe this ticket can now be marked as 'resolved'.
