💖 jscal-restore(1) 💖

okay so bestie, this one lives in section 1 of the General Commands Manual (that's the "user commands" girlies) — let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

jscal-restore — bestie, it restores joystick calibration 🎮💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

jscal-restore <device-name>

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So like, jscal-restore brings back the calibration and mapping info for the joystick device you point it at 🎀 — and specifically the stuff that was previously stored by the jscal-store command. it's giving "save file but for your controller's whole personality" 💾✨

And the way you can set up an appropriate rule with udev so that any stored calibration settings get restored the moment the relevant device is connected?? iconic. the vibes are automatic. 🔥

Some distributions — at least Debian, Ubuntu and Slackware — provide joystick packages which install such rules automatically. so if you're on one of those, lowkey you might not even have to do anything 🫶👑

🎀 FILES 🎀

• /var/lib/joystick/joystick.state — the file used to store the calibration settings. that's where the calibration lore lives 💜
