DESCRIPTION

       mousetweaks is a collection of accessibility enhancements for  pointing
       devices. This manual page describes the mousetweaks daemon.

OPTIONS

       --dwell
              Automatically  perform  mouse  clicks  without  using a physical
              button.

       --ssc  Trigger the secondary mouse button when the primary mouse button
              is held down for a specified amount of time.

       --dwell-time=FLOAT
              Time  to  keep  the  pointer  motionless before a dwell click is
              performed.  Range: 0.2 - 3.0 seconds.

       --ssc-time=FLOAT
              Time to  hold  the  primary  mouse  button  before  a  simulated
              secondary click is performed. Range: 0.5 - 3.0 seconds.

       -m, --dwell-mode=STRING
              Select  a  dwell  mode.  Available  options: window - Select the
              click type from a window or a panel applet.  gesture  -  Perform
              different clicks by moving in different directions.

       -c, --show-ctw
              Show  the  click-type  window.  Only  useful in combination with
              --dwell-mode=window.

       -x, --ctw-x=INT
              x-position of the click-type window on screen.

       -y, --ctw-y=INT
              y-position of the click-type window on screen.

       -t, --threshold=INT
              Ignore small pointer movements. Range: 0 - 30 pixels.

       -s, --shutdown
              Stop the mousetweaks daemon.

       --disable-animation
              Disable  cursor  animations.  The  animation  shows  the   timer
              progress  for  dwell  clicks  and  secondary  clicks  as  cursor
              overlay.

       --daemonize
              Start mousetweaks in the background, ie. spawn a child  process.

       --login
              Start  mousetweaks in login mode. Login mode enables workarounds
              specific to GDM. Currently unused.

FILES

       ~/.mousetweaks.pid
              The daemon creates a lock file in the users  home  directory  to
              keep track of its status.
