Unilaterally resetting the scroll direction to the 10.6 standard is insanely presumptuous.

So was unilaterally setting it to the 10.7 standard. I think we should have the script flip a coin so people are annoyed evenly.

It's not arbitrary though. The point was to move away from the metaphor of moving the window around a document to just manipulating the document directly as you do in iOS. Granted it's not as obviously the right thing when touch is not involved, but it is the right thing.

I has messing around with it, and had another application reverse it for just the mouse, and then it got reset or something, and now I don't know which way is the correct way. I think there's a triple negative in the settings. I flipped it again, thinking it was backwards, but not it still feels backwards. Nothing is right anymore. I'll just set it to whatever windows has it, so it's the same when I boot into that.

I much prefer natural scrolling, but the 10.6 standard has the same thing going for it as vim: it works everywhere. I gave up trying to reverse the scrolling in Windows with AutoHotkey, it was a mess. :(

WizMouse has been working quite well for me on Windows.
