libinput – tool to interface with libinput

Synopsis

libinput [–help|–version] <command> [<args>]

Description

libinput is a library to handle input devices and provides device detection and input device event processing for most Wayland compositors and the X.Org xf86-input-libinput driver.

The libinput tools are a set of tools to debug, interface with and analyze data for libinput. These tools create libinput contexts separate from that of the compositor/X server and cannot change settings in a running session. See section COMMANDS for a list of available commands.

libinput’s API documentation and details on features and various high-level concepts are available online at https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/

The man page for the X.Org xf86-input-libinput driver is libinput(4).
