Wheelmouse Scrolling with Netscape 4.79 in Caldera WS 3.1.1

Anyone know the secret to (re)activating wheelmouse scrolling in WS
3.1.1 with Netscape 4.79?
I installed NS 4.79 from the commercial CD, and managed to get it
running by:
1.  edit /usr/bin/netscape script to point to the new NS 4.79 path
2.  edit /etc/app-defaults and relink two symlinks (Netscape and
netscape.cfg) to new NS 4.79 install directory.

However, there is no wheelmouse scrolling, which was available with the
default NS 4.77.

I am familiar with this problem; it is easy to fix by adding a script to
/home/(user)/.Xresources,
but there is no .Xresources in my WS 3.1.1 user directory. (Learned this
from Libranet 1.9.1)

Oh yes, Netscape 7.0 has wheelmouse scrolling without any additional
calisthenics required.
