If you are using a different tablet, +you may need to edit the values of PENDEVICE and/or TOUCHDEVICE in +penxortouch.c. Hopefully these names are self-explanatory. The command +xinput(1) will give you a list of the input devices available on your system. + +A future revision will also include a genuine man page. As it is, there are +no run-time options. Simply run the program, penxortouch, and it will disable +the touchscreen device whenever the pen device comes in proximity to the +screen, and reenable the touchscreen when the pen leaves proximity. -- cgit v1.2.1
