NAME
xinput - utility to configure and test XInput devices
SYNOPSIS
xinput [version] [list [device_name]] [set-pointer device_name] [get- feedbacks device_name] [set-mode device_name ABSOLUTE|RELATIVE] [set- ptr-feedback device_name threshold num denom] [set-integer-feedback device_name index value] [set-button-map device_name map button 1 [map button 2 [...]]] [query-state device_name] [test [-proximity] device_name]
DESCRIPTION
xinput version test if the XInput extension is available and return the ver- sion number of the program. xinput list [device_name] If no argument is given list all the input devices showing all their features. If an argument is given, show all the feature of device_name. Uses XListInputDevices(3). xinput get-feedbacks device_name Display the feedbacks of device_name. Uses XGetFeedbackCon- trol(3). xinput set-pointer device_name Switch device_name in core pointer. Uses XChangePointerDe- vice(3). xinput set-mode device_name ABSOLUTE|RELATIVE Change the mode of device_name. Uses XSetDeviceMode(3). xinput set-ptr-feedback device_name threshold num denom Change the acceleration of device_name. Uses XChangeFeedback- Control(3). xinput set-integer-feedback device_name index value Change the value of an integer feedback of device_name. Uses XChangeFeedbackControl(3). xinput set-button-map device_name map button 1 [map button 2 [...]] Change the button mapping of device_name. Uses XSetDeviceBut- tonMapping(3). xinput query-state device_name Query the device state. Uses XQueryDeviceState(3). xinput list-props device_name [device_name...] Lists properties that can be set for the given device(s). xinput set-int-prop device_name property format value Sets an integer property for the device. Appropriate values for format are 8, 16, or 32, depending on the property. xinput watch-props device_name Prints to standard out when property changes occur. xinput delete-prop device_name property Delete the property from the device. xinput test [-proximity] device_name Register all extended events from device_name and enter an end- less loop displaying events received. If the -proximity is given, ProximityIn and ProximityOut are registered. device_name can be the device name as a string or the XID of the device. property can be the property as a string or the Atom value.
