Introduction -=============== +Overview +======== -xinput is an utility I have built to configure and test my XInput -devices. The functionalities aren't complete but they fill my -needs. If you have some ideas or needs for improvement, feel free to -contact me. Any feedback welcome. +xinput is a utility to configure and test XInput devices. It wasn't +originally designed to be the primary tool for doing this but it's +still pretty much the only program out there for doing it. :-) -2. Requirements -=============== +Requirements +============ -You'll need an ANSI C compiler. I know it works under Linux -ELF/XFree86 and Solaris 2.4 Sparc/X11R6.1. +xinput depends on the X11 headers and particularly the XInput headers. +As xinput now supports the new device types added in Xserver 1.4 (Xorg 7.3), +your headers must be from that version or newer. -3. Installation -=============== +Otherwise it will just require a working ANSI C compiler. -xmkmf -a +Building and Installation +========================= + +xinput uses autotools so the usual pattern applies: + +./configure +make make install -make install.man + +See the INSTALL file for details.
