.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
.B lisgd
|
|
|
|
(or libinput synthetic gesture daemon) lets you bind gestures based on
|
|
|
|
libinput touch events to run specific commands to execute. For example,
|
|
|
|
dragging left to right with one finger could execute a particular command
|
|
|
|
like launching a terminal. Directional L-R, R-L, U-D, and D-U gestures and
|
|
|
|
diagnol LD-RU, RD-LU, UR-DL, UL-DR gestures are supported with 1 through
|
|
|
|
n fingers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike other libinput gesture daemons, lisgd uses touch events to
|
|
|
|
recognize synthetic swipe gestures rather than using the libinput's
|
|
|
|
gesture events. The advantage of this is that the synthetic gestures
|
|
|
|
you define via lisgd can be used on touchscreens, which normal libinput
|
|
|
|
gestures don't support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This program was built for use on the Pinephone however it could be used in
|
|
|
|
general for any device that supports touch events, like laptop touchscreens
|
|
|
|
or similar. You may want to adjust the threshold depending on the device
|
|
|
|
you're using.

.SH OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-d ", " \-d\ devicepath\fR
|
|
|
|
Path of the dev filesystem device to monitor (like /dev/input/event1).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-g ", " \-g\ nfingers,gesture,command\fR
|
|
|
|
Allow you to bind a gesture wherein nfingers is an integer, gesture is
|
|
|
|
one of {LR,RL,DU,UD,DLUR,URDL,ULDR,DLUR}, and the shell command to be executed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The -g option can be used multiple times to bind multiple gestures.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-m ", " \-m\ timeoutms\fR
|
|
|
|
Number of milliseconds gestures must be performed within to be registered. After
|
|
|
|
the timeoutms value; the gesture won't be registered.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-o ", " \-o\ orientation\fR
|
|
|
|
Number of 90-degree rotations to translate gestures by. Can be set to 0-3. For
|
|
|
|
example using 1; a L-R gesture would become a U-D gesture. Meant to be used
|
|
|
|
for screen-rotation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-r ", " \-r\ degreesofleniency\fR
|
|
|
|
Number of degrees offset each 45-degree interval may still be recognized within.
|
|
|
|
Maximum value is 45. Default value is 15. E.g. U-D is a 180 degree gesture
|
|
|
|
but with 15 degrees of leniency will be recognized between 165-195 degrees.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-t ", " \-t\ distancethreshold\fR
|
|
|
|
Threshold in libinput units (pixels) after which a gesture registers. Defaults
|
|
|
|
to 300.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
.BR \-v \fR
|
|
|
|
Enables verbose mode which prints debugging messages.
