GRAIL-TEST-3-1(1) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Open Input Framework corner of the man pages β¨ this one lives in section 1, and honestly? it's giving "tiny tool, big job". let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
grail-test-3-1 β dump grail v3 events π
like, that's the whole gig. it dumps grail v3 events. no cap.
β¨ SYNPOSIS β¨
(yes babes, it's spelled like that in the original β iconic of them, we respect it π)
grail-test-3-1 window
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so here's the vibe πΈ this tool prints grail v3 events straight to stdout. that's it. that's the mission.
BUT. and this is the important part, don't skip it π β it requires an X11 server that supports multi-touch through XInput 2.2. no XInput 2.2, no multi-touch, no service. periodt.
it subscribes to gestures with a 3 touch start and max, but with a minimum of 1 touch. so it'll ride with you from one finger all the way up to three π₯
and the whole reason this lil guy exists? the grail-test-3-1 tool helps test continuation through touch count changes. aka: does everything stay slay when you go from 3 fingers to 1 finger and back again? that's the question it's answering π
heads up bestie: no--help, no--verbose, no config file. you hand it awindowand it does its thing. that's the whole relationship π
and that's the page!! written by grail, dated March 14, 2012 (a legend from the archives fr fr π), source grail, section GRAIL-TEST-3-1(1). mwah, go touch some screens π¦β¨
