MOUSE-DPI-TOOL(1)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, welcome to MOUSE-DPI-TOOL(1) from the General Commands Manual — it's the page for mouse-dpi-tool, a mouse resolution estimation tool 🐭💖.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

mouse-dpi-tool <evdev device>

Hand it an <evdev device> and that's the whole summoning ritual. No extra arguments, no side quests. ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so mouse-dpi-tool reads relative events — mouse movement events, the little "I moved!" signals — and it calculates the distance covered and the maximum frequency of the incoming events. 💅

When you combine that with a measurement of the actual distance physically covered, this allows the mouse's resolution to be estimated. Like, the tool handles the event math, you bring the physical-distance measurement, and together you get the estimation. 🔥

Some mouse devices provide dynamic frequencies, so it is recommended to measure multiple times to obtain the highest value. Fr fr, don't just run it once and call it a day. 💖

💅 OPTIONS 💅

mouse-dpi-tool accepts no options. Not one flag, not one toggle, not one sneaky little switch. The options list is empty, minimal, and unbothered. 👑

That's the MOUSE-DPI-TOOL(1) page from the General Commands Manual — no version/date in the footer, just the manual name, and I'm obsessed. 💖✨
