.SH NAME
|
|
libinput \- tool to interface with libinput
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B libinput [\-\-help] [\-\-version] <command> [<args>]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
The
|
|
.B "libinput"
|
|
tool creates a libinput context on the default seat "seat0" and interacts
|
|
with that libinput context.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This tool usually needs to be run as root to have access to the
|
|
/dev/input/eventX nodes.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The context created by this tool is a new libinput context and independent
|
|
of that created by the X.Org libinput driver, the Wayland compositor or any
|
|
other process that utilizes libinput (henceforth called "the caller").
|
|
Configuration options set in this context do not affect any other libinput
|
|
contexts.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that a device may be recognized by this tool but not handled by the
|
|
X.Org libinput driver or the Wayland compositor.
