NAME
touchfreeze — disables your touchpad when typing
SYNOPSIS
touchfreeze
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly touchfreeze.
touchfreeze is a program that disables your touchpad when you are
typing. This prevents unintended click and scroll events when part of
your hand touches the touchpad while you are typing.
After you stop typing, there is a certain delay before your touchpad is
enabled again. You can set the value of the delay by moving the slider
in touchfreeze’s window. touchfreeze’s window appears when clicking on
its dock icon.
touchfreeze only disables click and scroll events coming from your
touchpad. It does not disable cursor movement, neither any events
coming from your mouse.
