I am trying to remap my scroll wheel up and down to become left click. I am looking everywhere and I cant find how do to it. How should I go about doing this?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mouse_buttons#xmodmap_tweaking
To know which number is which button, run xev and click (or scroll) your button then check the log. Left click on my mouse example:
ButtonPress event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001,
root 0x1a2, subw 0x0, time 643381706, (41,88), root:(41,123),
state 0x0, button 1, same_screen YES
ButtonRelease event, serial 40, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001,
root 0x1a2, subw 0x0, time 643381784, (41,88), root:(41,123),
state 0x100, button 1, same_screen YES
see that button 1
? That means my left click is button 1.
This doesn’t really make sense to me because I have limited knowledge to these kind of things
Time to expand your knowledge as no one is gonna do it for you. Only you have the access to your mouse.

Might help if you read the last part of this and use the UI from the AUR packages i mentioned.
