I have a stick mapped to mouse wheel up/down/left/right, and when I nudge the stick a tiny bit, the document I'm reading moves up by a big jump once every few seconds. It would be easier to read if I could nudge the stick a tiny bit and have the document slowly slide up in a continuous motion.

Describe the solution you'd like

The Linux input layer supports high-resolution scroll wheel event codes REL_WHEEL_HI_RES and REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES. AntiMicroX seems like it's in a good position to emit these in real time, with values proportional to the position of the stick, instead of ‘saving up’ to emit big REL_WHEEL and REL_HWHEEL events.
